You can multiplex your SSH session and have several ssh commands running on the same connection (without having to type the password/check the security key again). Check the ControlMaster option for SSH.

And this is better than tmux... Why?

I use both. The primary reason for ControlMaster in my case is we use 2FA, and this way I only have to auth one connection.

Tmux is the UI for switching between ssh sessions sharing the connection.
