Secure Shell (SSH) → Tunnel Profile Items

This article describes a function or feature of the software ZOC Terminal. The feature or element of the software described here is 'Tunnel Profile Items'. ZOC Terminal is a professional terminal emulator that is well known for its extensive features, security, user friendlyness, wide range of emulations and quality of emulation implementation. ZOC Terminal is a common choice to replace other terminal emulators like Putty, Kitty, Termius, Secure-CRT, Attachmate Extra!and others.

As described in Manage Tunnel Profiles, a tunnel consists of a port number on one side and a combination of computer address and port on the other.

This dialog lets you enter the data for one tunnel, e.g. the data from the example above would be:

Tunnel from local to remote address.

Local port: 10110
Remote address: mail.hogwarts.edu:110

Additionally ZOC supports dynamic port forwarding, which essentially turns the SSH connection and ZOC into a SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy. In these cases there is no destination address and port, because the calling program will define those on the fly when making the connection.

 
Note: As with OpenSSH, IPv6 addresses need to be enclosed in square brackets, e.g. [fc00::100:1]:10022
