SSH Local Port Forwarding

Forwards a local port to a remote service through SSH. Traffic to localhost:local_port is tunneled to the remote server and delivered to localhost:remote_port there. -N prevents opening a shell.

When you need this: To access a database, Redis, or web UI on a remote server without opening firewall ports.
