How to turn SSH into a SOCKS proxy — ssh -D dynamic forwarding

You want your browser's or app's traffic to exit through the server.

Every flag and config keyword was checked against the OpenSSH 9.6 man pages, and the config examples were parsed for real with ssh -G.

ssh -D 1080 deploy@example.com
# point your browser or app at SOCKS5 proxy localhost:1080 —
# its traffic exits through the server
