How to create SSH tunnel using PuTTY in Windows?

Question

I need to create SSH tunnel with PuTTY in Windows, that would do the same as this command in Linux:

ssh -fN -L 2000:SomeIp:2000 myusername@myLinuxBox

You probably want to use plink.exe instead of the GUI client. The command line syntax is compatible iirc.
