Port forwarding (TCP forwarding)

&pagelevel(4)&pagelevel

You can specify the forwarding of any TCP/IP connections via a secure channel either as a command line parameter in the ssh start call or in the configuration file ssh_config (see "Configuring the OpenSSH client ssh"). Possible applications of port forwarding include, for example, a secure connection to an account when electronic banking is used and tunnelling by a firewall.
