4. Changing default ssh port
So we are almost done now. However its recommended to change the ssh port from default (default port 22) settings while forwarding it to internet for security reasons.
To change the ssh port:
sudo vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config and change the following line to custom port address
--> make sure that this port number matches the port address described in the portforward.com tutorial.
Also you can make your device ip static. For Raspberry pi, i have mentioned the modifications in the comments of previous post.
