For documentation for example look at the ssh man page at 
https://man.openbsd.org/ssh. The description of the -L and -R options.

We support the IP local/remote port forwarding in full - both on server and 
client. As far as _Unix_ sockets are concerned, there is no available Java 
library that I am aware of that provides this service since it involves 
*native* code. If you can recommend a good framework for it then we can think 
about this issue. However, since the feature is not in great demand (thus 
marked it as _Minor_), you might want to consider adding such support yourself 
(see _sshd-contrib_ package) - with some help from us. It can be a good 
exercise in using SSHD library as well as a welcome contribution. If it does 
become very popular we may consider adding support for it - again, depending on 
the availability of some 3rd party library that can provide this kind of 
support.

> Would be nice if MINA SSHD also supports forwarding sockets, not only ports.
>  Currently you can only forward from port to port, but SSH now can do from 
> port to socket, from socket to port, from port to port and from port to 
> socket.
