<p>I have a headless CentOS 7 box to which I have <code>ssh</code> access. I have installed OpenShift v4.2 - the <a href="https://code-ready.github.io/crc/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Code Ready Containers</a> version successfully. I am able to use the <code>oc</code> tool, create projects, access exposed routes from services, etc.</p>

<p>I want to explore the visualization that comes from Istio - the service mesh. How do I access the web console remotely so that I can explore the service mesh?</p>

<p><a href="https://2886795330-8443-simba02.environments.katacoda.com" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Katacoda</a> does not seem to have a OpenShift 4.2 cluster.</p>

<p>Two options come to my mind for the more generic case of connecting to a remote GUI:</p>

<ul>
<li>VNC tunneled over ssh</li>
<li>X11 forwarding using ssh</li>
</ul>

<p>Some years ago, VNC worked way better for me - it was lighter-weight and faster.</p>
