## Linux/Mac OS Example of Creating a Tunnel
At your local machine, create the tunnel:
On your local machine, create the tunnel:
```console
local $ ssh -TN -f username@login2.cluster-name.it4i.cz -L 5961:localhost:5961
$ ssh -TN -f username@login2.cluster-name.it4i.cz -L 5961:localhost:5961
```
Issue the following command to check the tunnel is established (note the PID 2022 in the last column, it is required for closing the tunnel):
```console
local $ netstat -natp | grep 5961
$ netstat -natp | grep 5961
(Not all processes could be identified, non-owned process info
will not be shown, you would have to be root to see it all.)

In this example, we connect to remote VNC server on port 5961, via the SSH tunnel. The connection is encrypted and secured. The VNC server listening on port 5961 provides screen of 1600x900 pixels.
