Configures the SSH port forwarding settings.

SSH port forwarding enables access to network services running on the dedicated or management IP addresses of a managed device. Multiple users on multiple workstations can use SSH Port Forwarding concurrently.

To use SSH port forwarding, the managed device's management or dedicated IP address must be configured on the Local Manager. This can be configured using config init or config info.
