My client has a private VPN network with hundreds of Ubuntu machines. I have ssh access. I have to update the components and software on them as needed. Is it possible, when connected to a machine, to give it a temporary opportunity to access the Internet from within a VPN (for example, through my connection), so that it can be updated to install additional software, etc.? Maybe I have the wrong approach, but to ask the network administrator every time to give temporary access is not an option and, as I understand it, they are very tired. I would be grateful if you tell me which way to dig.

- Does the software update system work through socks proxy? ssh can forward traffic through socks (google: "ssh socks"). If the update through it is not ready to work, you need to make this socks transparent (google: "linux transparent socks"). well, it is possible to set up your car so that it sends all incoming traffic to the Internet (if it does not do it by default) - Mike
