Reasoning:
• Allows seamless interaction and debugging with remote servers.
• Enables direct local access to remote server tools without additional VPNs or tunnels.
• Enhances security via SSH encrypted traffic.
Example Use-case:Developers working on web apps remotely can map a remote web service from 192.168.2.100:8000 to their local port 4000, making it accessible through their local browser with this config:
Host my-remote-server
HostName example.com
User myuser
RemoteForward 4000 192.168.2.100:8000
Currently, this setup doesn’t affect SSH sessions launched from VSCode terminals, requiring external terminal use which disrupts workflow.
