Overview

OpenSSH can be used to tunnel traffic from the local host to a remote host you have an account on.

Setting a Tunnel from a Local Port to a Port on a Remote Host

ssh -f <remote-host-ssh-user>@<remote-host> -L <local-port>:<remote-host>:<port-on-remote-host> -N

The "-f" option tells ssh to go to background.

The "-N" option tells ssh to NOT execute any command on the remote system.
