Probably not, but if you're on linux then it should be quite easy. What I do: Run ssh -N -D 8080 @lxplus.cern.ch . Enter your password. It will look like it hung up, that's fine & expected. If you use google chrome, google "google chrome extensions", click on google web store, type "socks" in search bar, and install "Hotplate localhost SOCKS proxy setup" (logo of an actual grey sock). Right click on your new plugin in your google bar, and click "Use localhost:8080 SOCKS proxy". It should have green "on", not flashing. If it does, you can now access CERN grafana page. Or, if you ssh -n -d to fnal, then you can access US netflix. Apparently it's even easier with Mozilla, but I never tried. I also know someone that just managed to set it up on Windows with putty about 5 minutes ago.
