 man ssh
 /-L

 -L [bind_address:]port:host:hostport Specifies that the given
    port on the local (client) host is to be forwarded to the
    given host and port on the remote side. [..]

Just make sure you are allowed to do so, there are firewalls
designed to detect/reject even if this port is allowed but you
aren't using the service that is allowed to pass through.
