Is this your homework?
look for ssh tunneling and/or firewall settings.

no not homework..
actually i m preparing for RHCE exam
i have doubt to answer given to mention question "Â configure serverX to forward traffic incoming on port 80/tcp from desktopX to port on 5243/tcp"...
The answer given is
#firewall-cmd --permanent --add-rich-rule='rule family=ipv4 source address=172.25.5.10 forward-port port=5243 protocol=tcp to-port=80'

and i m thinking of this
#firewall-cmd --permanent --add-rich-rule='rule family=ipv4 source address=172.25.5.10 forward-port port=80 protocol=tcp to-port=5243'

Hm. Next time you could start with your real question...
assuming your desktopX is 172.25.5.10 and you execute that command on serverX looks like you are right.
see man firewalld.richlanguage

Hi,

As you are preparing for RHCE, my advice is: try both and test until you find out the working way.
