Port Forwarding
When you want to just forward a specific port locally to a remote port.
This example will create a local port 9999 that will be forwarded to the remote host webbserver.umiacs.umd.edu and its port 8000 through the host openlab.umiacs.umd.edu.
- ssh -NfL 9999:webserver.umiacs.umd.edu:8000 openlab.umiacs.umd.edu
This example will create a local port 13389 that will be forwarded to a remote host that is running a RDP client like Windows XP or Windows Vista through the host openlab.umiacs.umd.edu
- ssh -L 13389:my-desktop.pc.umiacs.umd.edu:3389 openlab.umiacs.umd.edu
Socks Proxy=
SSH can also tunnel all traffic coming into a certain port through a SOCKS v5 proxy. Many browsers and some operating systems can be setup to then connect to this proxy to allow them again to look like they are coming from the host name you specify in your SSH command.
- ssh -ND 7777 openlab.umiacs.umd.edu
Please note, that when you configure proxy settings for a browser or your whole operating system all the traffic for that browser or in case your OS all your traffic will be sent through the proxy. This can have performance implications.
