.sp
Establishes a tunnel to allow communications between machines within
different networks, for example multiple MPI slave jobs running on
different clusters.

Imagine you have two clusters, C1 and C2. Each cluster is accessible via SSH
on a front\-end named respectively F1 and F2. Groups of nodes N1 and N2 have
been reserved by the batch scheduling system on both clusters.
Each node in N1 is on the same network as the other nodes of N1, but they
can’t access the network on which the nodes of N2 are.
.INDENT 0.0
.IP 1. 3
Start a parallel simulation on the cluster C1, running on nodes N1.
We assume that there is a shared file system, such that F1 can access
the EZFIO directory. We also assume that F1 can communicate with the
nodes of N1.
.IP 2. 3
Run a tunnel on the front\-end F1 and keep it running:

On the front\-end F2, run another instance connecting to the other one,
which will fetch the \fI\%EZFIO\fP directory:

Keep the tunnel running, and you can now run a slave simulation within the
nodes N2.
