Use the SSH to build up the tunnel access to other computer can make the communication encrypted and secured, tested on the http service by using the SSH tunnel access,

1, use the wireshark to capture the data without the SSH tunnel,  host as 192.168.0.103, remote server as 192.168.0.254

Linux SSH tunnel access test_firefox


The data can be viewed,

Linux SSH tunnel access test_encrypted_02



2, build up the SSH tunnel

ssh root@instructor -L 12345: instructor:80

needs to input the password

Linux SSH tunnel access test_tunnel_03

3, use the tunnel to access the 192.168.0.254, by the input in the firefox as "localhost:12345/pub/rhel6/dvd/GPL", through local address and port 12345

Linux SSH tunnel access test_firefox_04

4, use the wireshark to capture the data with SSH tunnel, encrypted, cannot be viewed.

captured data:

Linux SSH tunnel access test_wireshark_05

Follow TCP Stream:

Linux SSH tunnel access test_wireshark_06
