• Key Concepts: 
  Tunneling is a feature of the Cloud Foundry component of SAP that allows users to securely access applications and services running on the Cloud Foundry platform. It provides a secure connection between the user's local machine and the Cloud Foundry platform, allowing users to access applications and services without having to open up their network to the public internet.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use tunneling, users must first install the Cloud Foundry CLI (Command Line Interface) on their local machine. Once installed, users can then use the CLI to create a secure tunnel between their local machine and the Cloud Foundry platform. This tunnel will allow users to securely access applications and services running on the Cloud Foundry platform without having to open up their network to the public internet.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using tunneling, it is important to remember that all traffic sent through the tunnel is encrypted. This means that any data sent through the tunnel is secure and cannot be intercepted by third parties. Additionally, it is important to remember that tunneling only works with applications and services running on the Cloud Foundry platform, so users must ensure that they are connecting to an application or service running on Cloud Foundry before attempting to use tunneling.
