-If you do not need a full [[en:vpn:|VPN]] but only access to internal Web services like [[en:accounts:students:manage:|renewal of a student account] or [[en:vpn:profiles|creation of renewal of a VPN profile/certificate]], you can use a dynamic proxy via SSH:
+===== SSH dynamic (SOCKS) proxy =====
-  * **Unix, MacOS-X**: ''ssh -D7777 login.cs.uni-bonn.de'' (students) or ''ssh -D7777 hera.cs.uni-bonn.de (employees)''
+If you do not need a full [[en:vpn:|VPN]], you can use a dynamic proxy via [[en:ssh|SSH]]:
-  * **Putty running on Windows**:   {{ :de:ssh:puttysocks.png?direct&200|}}
-     - In __Session__: Host ''login.cs.uni-bonn.de'' (students) or ''hera.cs.uni-bonn.de'' (employees)
+=== First step: create the tunnel ===
+  * **Unix, MacOS-X**: ''ssh -D8888 username@login-stud.informatik.uni-bonn.de'' (students) or ''ssh -D8888 username@login-staff.informatik.uni-bonn.de (employees)'' or ''ssh -D8888 username@login.bit.uni-bonn.de'' (employees of b-it) --- replace "username" with your user name.

+     - In __Session__: Host ''login-stud.informatik.uni-bonn.de'' (students) or ''login-staff.informatik.uni-bonn.de'' (employees)
      - In __Connection__: open the sub-menu ''SSH''
-     - In __Tunnels__: ''destination'' //dynamic//, ''source port'' //7777//, ''ADD''
+     - In __Tunnels__: ''destination'' //dynamic//, ''source port'' //8888//, ''ADD''
      - Then ''Open''
+=== Second step: use the tunnel ===
+Finally, configure in your web browser ''localhost:8888'' as the Socks V5 proxy.
+This example is for ''firefox 60.esr'', English version. Other browsers and versions may look differently. Type, of course, //8888// wherever //7777// is used these pictures.
