# HTTP Tunnels with SSH Client

Reverse SSH tunnel `ssh -R` is an alternative mechanism for creating a tunnel without installing and using the **tuna** client. A standard SSH client is used to create the tunnel, which is typically present in all Unix-like operating systems.

Attention

The feature is in BETA testing stage. Currently, only HTTP tunnels with dynamic subdomain creation are supported.

## Running

First, add your public [SSH key](https://my.tuna.am/public_keys), and immediately after that you can connect. For example, an HTTP tunnel for a service on port 8080:

```shell
ssh -R 443:localhost:8080 ssh-ru.tuna.am http

```
