Port Tunneling

JFrog Connect API requests to support port tunneling.

This page has requests to support port tunneling, such as opening and closing port tunneling sessions, and has requests to get information about the open port tunnels.

Prerequisites

The following are required to use the port tunneling API requests:

• You must have the following Project Permission defined:

  • Remote Terminal & Port Tunnel.

• For using a remote SSH session, you need ssh-client installed on the device.

No ports need to be open on the device or the firewall for port tunneling to work.

Open Port Tunnel

post

Opens a port tunneling session with the device that you specify.

Once you obtain the server address and port, you are ready to interact with the device. The following are some examples of different types of interfaces you can use and hyperlinks to the simple procedure for each one.

• For access with VNC: Open the VNC Viewer on Your Computer
• To connect with SSH: Open a Terminal Window
• Access Device Web Applications: Access the Web Page
