How to ssh with a jump / proxy host
Sometimes you need access to a host not on the same network as you. Luckily, ssh has a built-in jump/proxy option.
In order to connect with a jump or a proxy you just have to provide the `-J` flag.
ssh -J <USER>@<PROXYHOST> <USER>@<TARGETHOST>
This way ssh first connects to the proxy and then hops to the target host automatically.
