I have installed a network camera in my home which i would like to watch when i am in my office.The problem is that the specific port that is used from my camera to pass video is blocked by my isp(as most ports for incoming connections). It is not possible to change that port from my camera software so i can then do the port forward for my router.I am searching a way to bypass that blocked ports through an ssh tunnel (as it seems that this is probably the only way), either creating an ssh server in my home or through a third ssh server in the web.I am not really familiar with ssh , so any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
As far as I can recall, here is a quick illustration.
Once logged in, the port "local_port" will be listening on your local host. You must leave this SSH session open throughout. By now, traffic to "local_port" at localhost will be routed to the "blocked_port" at "my.host" instead (until the SSH session is torn down).
This is good for exposing a few blocked ports without all the hassle of setting up VPN. And apart from exposing blocked ports on the SSH'ed host itself you can even bridge to a port at an internal host behind NAT.
What are you using for a firewall/router? They both should be able to redirect the port once it reaches your network. Just use a high numbered port. and setup your device to forward that port onto your camera.
Thank you for your answer cbkihong.I have never used ssh for something like that so i need some more help.So , the camera is in my home pc where the incoming connections are closed from my isp(the video streaming is on port 5003-in normal conditions i would port forward that port to my lan camera) .From my office pc i can have all incoming connections open and so i can port forward any port from my office router.So where do i have to install the ssh server and where the client. I guess the only option is to install the ssh server in my office pc (port forward ssh port (22) to my pc in my office router) and connect from my home pc through ssh client.So what arguments to use in the ssh client.
Thank you.

Hi,
How do you write a function which has to stay blocked in a wait state till an event occurs?
The event could be the arrival of a message/updation of a database etc ..
