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-address-on-which-ssh-is-exposed> -L <local-port>:<remote-host-interface-to-forward-to>:<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. If "-N" is omitted, the ssh tunnel will establish AND login.
