SSH TUNNELING LAB TOOL · prototype

SSH TUNNEL

A Python learning tool for building SSH tunnels through a jump host to reach an internal target, written to make local, dynamic, and remote forwarding concrete in a controlled lab.

pythonsshnetworkinglab

// problem

SSH forwarding modes are hard to internalize from man pages alone.

// constraints

  • For use only in a lab or against systems you are authorized to access.

// approach

  • Interactive prompts build local, dynamic, and remote forwards through a jump host step by step.
  • Helper routines compute subnet ranges to show which hosts a given forward reaches.

// outcome

A hands-on way to understand SSH forwarding before reaching for a heavier framework.
