[EDIT: Oops, I see you are doing this over ssh, so ignore the below (it's valid for local purposes, however]
That's because you gain a new environment when you su with the "-", and the variables are defined in the current user's environment, hence they don't persist across the su.
If this is linux, you can try "su -m" to preserve the environment, otherwise just drop the "-" and see what you get.

the ssh calling convention:
ssh <server>
If I put commands in the section, ssh will execute them immediately after logging in and return to local shell. I want to stay in the remote shell after executing these commands. How can I achieve this?
Thanks for all. (1 Reply)

ssh-socks5-proxy-connect
ssh-socks5-proxy-connect(1) User Commands ssh-socks5-proxy-connect(1)
NAME
ssh-socks5-proxy-connect - Secure Shell proxy for SOCKS5
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/ssh/ssh-socks5-proxy-connect [-h socks5_proxy_host] [-p socks5_proxy_port] connect_host connect_port
DESCRIPTION
A proxy command for ssh(1) that uses SOCKS5 (RFC 1928). Typical use is where connections external to a network are only allowed via a socks
gateway server.
This proxy command does not provide any of the SOCKS5 authentication mechanisms defined in RFC 1928. Only anonymous connections are possi-
ble.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-h socks5_proxy_host Specifies the proxy web server through which to connect. Overrides the SOCKS5_SERVER environment variable.
-p socks5_proxy_port Specifies the port on which the proxy web server runs. If not specified, port 80 is assumed. Overrides the
SOCKS5_PORT environment variable.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
socks5_proxy_host The host name or IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) of the proxy.
socks5_proxy_port The numeric port number to connect to on socks5_proxy_host.
connect_host The name of the remote host to which the socks gateway is to connect you.
connect_port The numeric port number of the socks gateway to connect you to on connect_host.
EXAMPLES
The recommended way to use a proxy connection command is to configure the ProxyCommand in ssh_config(4) (see Example 1 and Example 2).
Example 3 shows how the proxy command can be specified on the command line when running ssh(1).
Example 1: Setting the proxy from the environment
The following example uses ssh-socks5-proxy-connect in ssh_config(4) when the proxy is set from the environment:
Host playtime.foo.com
ProxyCommand /usr/lib/ssh/ssh-socks5-proxy-connect
playtime.foo.com 22
Example 2: Overriding proxy environment variables
The following example uses ssh-socks5-proxy-connect in ssh_config(4) to override (or if not set) proxy environment variables:
Host playtime.foo.com
ProxyCommand /usr/lib/ssh/ssh-socks5-proxy-connect -h socks-gw
-p 1080 playtime.foo.com 22
Example 3: Using the command line
The following example uses ssh-socks5-proxy-connect from the ssh(1) command line:
example$ ssh -o'ProxyCommand=/usr/lib/ssh/ssh-socks5-proxy-connect
-h socks-gw -p 1080 playtime.foo.com 22' playtime.foo.com
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
SOCKS5_SERVER Takes socks5_proxy_host operand to specify the default proxy host.
SOCKS5_PORT Takes socks5_proxy_port operand to specify the default proxy port.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
1 An error occurred.
