Secure Shell (SSH) → Manage SSH Tunnel Profiles

Tunnel profiles are used to route data from a local port to a remote host or remote port to a local host through the secure SSH connection. A profile consists of one or more specifications of port/host pairs and can be assigned to a connection.

This dialog lets you manage tunnel profile files. You can load an existing file, create, edit or delete entries, save it or save it under a different name. To use the tunnels in the profile, the name of the file can then be specified in the SSH options of a connection.

If, for example, you wanted to do secure mail checking, you could install a tunnel from your local port 10110 to your mail server mail.hogwarts.edu.110 (see Tunnel Profile Items).

In your email program you would then configure the account to connect to localhost:10110 or 127.0.0.1:10110 (which both refer to your own computer). Assuming there is a connection to a host active with the given tunnel profile, ZOC would then route the connection through the SSH stream to the remote mail server.

Additionally ZOC also supports dynamic port forwarding, which essentially turns the SSH connection and ZOC into a SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy.
