Well, with the above command, you're expecting the router to accept SSH requests. Looks like the router doesn't support that. If you want tunneling to work, the endpoint of this SSH session should be another FreeBSD box, for example. Then, you command line _should_ be: ssh -2 -N -f -L 5023:<router's address>:23 <SSH server's address> Then, telnet to localhost 5203, and you should get your router login prompt.
