SSH Tunnel Manager

Tunnel Manager is a tool for proxying, pivoting and securing connections over SSH.
It's basically a GUI wrapper for plink but adds profiling, notifications and is focused on automation and session persistence.
It is written mainly in AutoHotkey and the GUI framework that I used is Neutron.ahk, so it has a little bit of HTML, CSS (Bootstrap 3), JS and JQuery.

Use cases:

• Example of Tunnel Manager Use Cases and Scenarios Sharing Network Access - If you need to work from home and access your company's internal network, which only allows access from within the network, you can install the Tunnel Manager agent on a computer located within your company's premises. This will enable you to utilize its internet access1 without depending on the company's remote access tools.
• Access to Devices Without VPN Support - Suppose you have a device that does not support VPN, such as an IoT sensor, CCTV camera, or smart TV, and you want to access them from your laptop on a different network that cannot directly reach the device. In this case, you can install the Tunnel Manager agent on a device within the same network as these devices. Then, you can connect using your laptop through Tunnel Manager from anywhere.
• Using Native Services like RDP/SSH Across Different Networks - You can use Tunnel Manager to access your computer's native services like RDP (Remote Desktop) or SSH directly, without relying on third-party services. This is especially useful when both machines cannot reach each other directly, and neither has a public IP address. Tunnel Manager allows you to use your SSH or RDP client (e.g., OpenSSH client or Microsoft Remote Desktop) without the need for any modifications or additional software to connect to your computer.
• Publishing a Local Webserver - Suppose you have a webserver running on your local network that you want to make accessible on the internet. If your ISP doesn't provide you with a public IP address or you wish to let others publish their webservers on your public IP address from their local networks, Tunnel Manager can help you publish your webserver to the internet.
