Create ssh tunnel and connect to the remote mongo database on command line

Assume followings:

/mykeys/.ssh/prodserver.pem - is a certificate file

umid - is a user name

111.111.111.111 - is a remote host, that mongodb runs

2222 - is a remote port to connect via ssh

localhost:27017 - local host and port on remote machine

27018 - local port

ssh -i /mykeys/.ssh/prodserver.pem umid@111.111.111.111 -p 2222 -Nf -L 27018:localhost:27017

Connect to the mongodb via opened tunnel, in this case mydb is database name

mongo --port 27018 mydb
