ssh -L local_port:destination_server_ip:remote_port ssh_server_hostname

⦁ ssh – Starts the SSH client program on the local machine and establishes a secure connection to the remote SSH server.

⦁ -L local_port:destination_server_ip:remote_port – The local port on the local client is being forwarded to the port of the destination remote server.

⦁ ssh_server_hostname – This element of the syntax represents the hostname or IP address of the remote SSH server.

A practical example of an SSH port forwarding command would take the following form:

ssh –L 5901:188.17.0.5:4492 pnap@ssh.server.com
