Creating a SOCKS proxy

If allowed by your remote server, you can create a local SOCKS proxy so that traffic is redirected to your remote server.

ssh -C2qTnN -D 8080 user@remote_server

This will create a SOCKS proxy with port 8080 on your local computer wherein all traffic will be redirected to your remote server. Set your application to use local address 127.0.0.1 with port 8080.
