Can Mikrotik proxy traffic over a SSH tunnel? In Linux I can do 


# ssh -D port_no ip_address

And then in e.g. Firefox enable SOCKS proxy at localhost:port_no.

I'm trying to do just that, but with no success for now.

I can tunnel specific ports just fine, like tunnelling local port 8010 to remote 10.0.0.10:80, works fine, but i have to remember all the mappings in this rat's nest...
So i went on looking for a more friendly solution, and i was presented to the concept of dynamic mapping and proxying with cocks v5.

I setup putty with option D8080, and firefox proxy settings 127.0.0.1:8080 with socks v5. But i can not get it to work.

Does someone has a similar setup running and could chime in with some advice?


Thanks!

I just tried a quick test and it worked, nothing special was required. I did the same thing you did, only with different port. The SOCKS5 part is done by client, so it should just work.

To avoid opening new thread, i will use this one.

SOCKS proxy works, but sometimes (somewhat often) it stops working. It seems it hangs on TLS handshake with remote sites. I could not find anything regarding this, but the closest i could find is this report. In short: "there is a short-timeout bug of some kind in OpenSSH itself":

When i connect with Putty to Linux (Ubuntu - ssh SOCKS proxy tunnel) machine, it works without any problems, so there is most likely some problem with MikroTik ssh implementation..
I thought i should share this if others have problem. Would be good if someone else could confirm my findings.

Everywhere on the internet people know how to easily set this up easily, yet no one answers this question!
