I use the following code in a script that executes several remote commands to deploy a system:

    $self->{ssh} = Net::SSH2->new();
    $self->{ssh}->connect($self->{host}) or die <<ERR;
Can't open an ssh connection to $self->{host}: $!
ERR
    $self->{ssh}->auth_password($opts{user}, $opts{pass}) or die <<ERR
+;
Can't login using ssh to $self->{host}: $!
ERR

...

sub sshSendCommand {
    my ($self, $cmd, $pollTime) = @_;
    my $chan = $self->{ssh}->channel();
    my $log  = '';
    my $timeDelta = sprintf "%4d:", time() - $self->{startTime};

    $pollTime ||= 500;
    print "$timeDelta ssh: <$cmd> (poll time: $pollTime)\n";
    $chan->exec($cmd);

    my @poll = {handle => $chan, events => ['in']};

    while ($self->{ssh}->poll($pollTime, \@poll)) {
        if ($poll[0]{revents}{channel_closed}) {
            print "$timeDelta channel closed\n";
            last;
        }

        next if !$poll[0]{revents}{in};

        my $buff;

        $log .= $buff while $chan->read($buff, 1024);
        next;
    }

    print "$log\n$timeDelta ssh command complete\n";
    return $log;
}
