Vagrant reverse port forwarding?

Question

I\'m working on a web services architecture. I\'ve got some software that I need to run on the native host machine, not in Vagrant. But I\'d like to run some client services

Answer 1

Add following to your ~/.ssh/config on the host machine:

Host 127.0.0.1
RemoteForward 52698 127.0.0.1:52698

It lets you access a service on host machine port 52698 from Vagrant, as long as you logged in via vagrant ssh.

You can confirm it works by running netstat -lt on vagrant VM and taking a note on the following lines:

tcp      0    0 localhost:52698         *:*                 LISTEN
tcp6     0    0 ip6-localhost:52698     [::]:*              LISTEN
