Free book to master SSH tunneling concepts
Looks interesting, will give it a read as it looks to cover more than the basics.<p>Years ago I worked in a SOC doing managed services for a major telco provider, and for some reason they thought that we didn't have the need to do any kind of SSH tunneling to manage routers/switches/firewalls. They kept blocking it at various layers, and we kept having to find more and more creative ways to get around it. I think at one point we were hosting our own PAC files local to our machines, building three layers of tunnels (the last of which being a dynamic SOCKS tunnel), and using a portable browser (because we couldn't be trusted with admin!) with FoxyProxy (or similar) to finally reach our destination.
