I can only ssh locally. I tried to ssh from my laptop in an external network but I wasn't able to do that. So I went home and did some troubleshooting. Now I want to ssh from my local network to that server externally(using a remote address or an external IP address). So is there a method I can use to do that ?

    contact your network administrator. they will have to allow your traffic inbound in order for you to connect.

  • @FrankThomas thank you. I had a strong feeling that they were behind it.

You have a few different options here:

  • Your network administrator blocks inside SSH access
    • Ask them to fix it.
  • Your server doesn't port forward
    • Forward the port on your router
    • Make an reverse ssh tunnel (if you have a port forwarded server)

I hope that solves it for you!

Go into your router settings and do port forwarding to your server's IP and 22 port.

Hope this solution will help.
