In this post, we are gonna explain how to establish tunnel between local machine to your server. The following are the few use cases.<\/p>\n

\n
• When any application\/domain is restricted particularly to the network.<\/li>\n
• When you want to open the application\/domain which is in private network.<\/li>\n
• If you are looking to book IRCTC ticket :P. There is a restriction in irctc network where you will be allowed to book only 2 tatkal ticket from particular IP address<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Prerequisites:<\/strong><\/p>\n

  \n
  • SSH access to the machine<\/li>\n
  • Putty client or terminal<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Implementation:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    2. On the putty, move to\u00a0SSH > Tunnels\u00a0<\/strong>and configure the tunnel.<\/p>\n

    3. Click on Open.\u00a0<\/strong>Enter the username and password. Thats it. A tunnel is established. Now, we are gonna show you how to configure firefox to use the tunnel.<\/p>\n

    Port:1990(this port we used while we configure tunnel on putty)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    4. Click on\u00a0OK<\/strong><\/p>\n

    You have successfully completed the setup. Now, access the internal sites or any restricted site.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n
