First of all, can you post the ssh tunnel syntax you are using? In ssh you can specify which ip address will be used to bind the port tunnel. E.g: -L <local ip>:<local port>:<remote ip>:<remote port>. Secondly, can you tell us the type of traffic you want transport over the tunnel? You can pass as many -L syntax as needed to ssh.
