Despite closing the remote session, commands can be executed in the host about jumpssh HOT 3 CLOSED

Your call to close() worked well, you can see it wit the print of is_active().
It's simply that any function (like get_command_output) that requires an open session to work, will try first to transparently open (or re-open) the current session for you.
So in fact, in most of the cases you don't need to explicitly call open() as it will be done for you when you really need it.

Thanks a lot for the reply. So closing the session at the end of our functions will do, right? Thanks once again

yes, it will work, just to give you more details, you have several possibilities to ensure sessions are closed, depending on when you want them to be closed:

• close it explicitly when needed
• use context manager so it will be closed automatically at the end of block
• don't do anything, it will be closed automatically when SSHSession instance is garbage collected
