Just like creation of session id on a web server and passing this
across to the web client, do we have aything like this in SSH?
Thus, a situation I am looking into is like a SSH server creates a
token (after authenticating SSH client using login/password or PKI or
certificates etc) and passes this token across to SSH client and then
onwards, the client and the server communicate using this token
(analogous to a session id in web apps). The SSH client would pass
this token along with all its requests to SSH server and only when the
server sees the token is valid, SSH server accepts the request.

Have you ever come across something like this? Any pointers are
welcome.
