To test if everything is set up correctly we can visit a site like or enter in the google search bar “ whats my ip” and you should see your remote IP Address. We can open a new tab and start with browsing the Internet via secured network. Now, we have successfully created an SSH Tunnel using Putty and Firefox. We need to click the OK button to save and close the configuration.

To work the configuration in Firefox with the SOCKS 5 protocol we have to use a local application.įirst, we have to open the Firefox Web Browser and access Firefox’s menu: Now that we have SSH tunnel, we need to configure Firefox Web Browser to use that tunnel.

In this tutorial, we will create an SSH Tunnel using Putty and Firefox with Local port forwarding. Communication can be established across a range of ports.

Dynamic port forwarding – Dynamic port forwarding is a complex method of creating an SSH Tunnel, traversing a firewall or NAT through the use of a firewall.

It will forward the traffic coming to a port on our server to our local computer machine and it will send back to a destination.

Remote port forwarding – Remote port forwarding works opposite from the local port forwarding.

The SSH client will listen for connections on a configured port and when it receives a connection it will create a tunnel to the SSH server.

Local port forwarding – With local port forwarding we can forward a port from our local machine to the server machine.

There are three types of port forwarding: There are several ways to set up an SSH tunnel with different types of port forwarding. If you can connect to an external SSH server, you can create an SSH tunnel to forward a port on your local machine to a port in the other machine which will be the other end of the tunnel. In general, SOCKS is a protocol that establishes a TCP connection and exchanges network packets between a client and a server through a proxy server. If your service provider or some organization has blocked certain sites using their proxy filter you can bypass them with a SOCKS 5 proxy tunnel.
