[gentoo-user] Keep alive within SSH session

I am not sure of the correct approach to achieve a prolonged remote debugging 
session through SSH and avoid the SSH session timing out.

This is what I try to achieve:

I login into a router with SSH from my PC.  Then I can run certain commands to 
start and monitor a debugging session in the router.  However, if I leave 
alone the SSH session, it will soon time out.  The debugging only runs while 
the session is live.  Exiting the SSH session causes all debug output to be 
lost.

If I continue to run (router) commands on the terminal, while the debugging is 
running, the SSH time out is postponed.

What do you suggest I try on an SSH terminal from my PC to keep running 
recurring commands after I have connected to the router?  I will need to keep 
a debugging session going for some hours, in order to collect the data I'm 
after.
