Reverse ssh tunnel

Hi all,
Im new to ansible, I’ve been trying to remotely run some scripts on my linux server
my remote srv is connected via reverse SSH tunnel, so to remotely connect to it I run “ssh admin@localhost -p ”
but I simply can’t connect with to it using ansible
I added to my inventory (/etc/ansible/hosts) this:

[devices]
terminal ansible_ssh_port=22 ansible_ssh_host=127.0.0.1:30002 ansible_connection=ssh ansible_ssh_user=admin

I also tried this:

[devices]
terminal ansible_ssh_port=30002 ansible_ssh_host=127.0.0.1 ansible_connection=ssh ansible_ssh_user=admin

maybe there is a configuration or a flag I didn’t use / mark

any idea ?

thanks in advance for any help !

I have a couple of servers that I manage via reverse tunnels, and I
use the second syntax:

terminal ansible_ssh_port=30002 ansible_ssh_host=127.0.0.1 ansible_connection=ssh ansible_ssh_user=admin
