Last time we saw that we can port forward the remote port to local machine and use it for testing the apps in the remote server. The opposite of this is also true. Yes, we can port forward the local port to remote server and use it for internet connectivity in the remote machine.
This trick comes handy if the remote server is behind a firewall or in a VPN and there is no direct connectivity to the internet. So what we will do if we need to update the applications in the server. Or what if we need to install a critical security update to the server? Here again comes the port forwarding to our rescue.
