...If the compromised host is directly accessible (Forward Connection) from Our pentest machine, Then we can run pivotsuite as a server on the compromised machine and access the different subnet hosts from our pentest machine, Which was only accessible from the compromised machine. If the compromised host is behind a Firewall / NAT and isn't directly accessible from our pentest machine, Then we can run pivotsuite as a server on pentest machine and pivotsuite as a client on the compromised machine for creating a reverse tunnel (Reverse Connection). Using this we can reach different subnet hosts from our pentest machine, which was only accessible from the compromised machine.
