Forward a local web page or port to your client device
- Enable fctl on your local, client machine (you can utilize docker for this step if you are running on Windows)
- Run the following command:
ssh -NT -L 1111:<webpageIP:port> <user>@<device_name>.formant
This forwards the page accessible at webpageIP:port
from <device_name>
to your local device at localhost:1111
.
So, for example, this command:
ssh -NT -L 1111:192.168.50.3:80 [email protected]
...would forward 192.168.50.3:80
, which is accessible by the device named walter
in Formant, to localhost:1111
.
- Embed as a new custom view the URL (
localhost:1111
) - Repeat for each view; consider adding each ssh port forwarding command to a script which a user can run to forward all relevant ports. Set up each view individually.
