They will time out when the application tries to send some data and
fails for a period of time.  You can configure ssh to use keepalives
if you want to hurry this along.  Or you can kill the process holding
the socket, and the socket will be closed along with the process.  

It isn't something to spend time worrying about unless you really want
to...

type anything on ssh so i checked and i had lost internet connectionI
reset my router..connect through Internet, now working, to my BSD again and
i can see the old connections as ESTABLISHED.They are hanged there cause
of the loss of my connection i guessSo my doubt and question was;
Is this normal behaviour, who is in charge of managing this? the TCP
stack, or can i config SSH...If someone who's got the time and willing to
