Metasploit Penetration Testing Cookbook - Third Edition

Port forwarding with Meterpreter

Discussing pivoting is never complete without talking about port forwarding. In this recipe, we will continue from our previous pivoting recipe and see how we can port forward the data and requests from the attacking machine to the internal network server via the target node. An important thing to note here is that we can use port forwarding to access various services of the internal server.
