About:
SSH Tunnel Manager is a macOS utility designed to simplify the creation and management of SSH tunnels. It provides a graphical interface to configure, start, and stop tunnel definitions, eliminating the need for manual command-line operations. The tool helps maintain persistent connections and offers detailed logging for troubleshooting.
Key Features:
  • Graphical interface for managing SSH tunnel configurations
  • Automatic connection monitoring and restart capabilities
  • Secure storage of connection credentials in the Keychain
  • Detailed logging and status indicators for active tunnels
Use Cases:
  • Developers needing to securely access remote databases or internal web services
  • System administrators managing multiple SSH tunnels for infrastructure access
  • Users requiring persistent SSH tunnels for SOCKS5 proxy connections
Alternatives:
  • ssh -D/-L – Native command-line SSH offers direct tunneling but lacks persistent management and GUI convenience
  • AutoSSH – Command-line tool for persistent tunnels but requires manual configuration and lacks GUI
  • SecurePipe – Commercial alternative with similar GUI features but different pricing model
