- Run a Chisel server:

`chisel server`

- Run a Chisel server listening to a specific port:

`chisel server -p {{server_port}}`

- Run a chisel server that accepts authenticated connections using username and password:

`chisel server --auth {{username}}:{{password}}`

- Connect to a Chisel server and tunnel a specific port to a remote server and port:

`chisel client {{server_ip}}:{{server_port}} {{local_port}}:{{remote_server}}:{{remote_port}}`

- Connect to a Chisel server and tunnel a specific host and port to a remote server and port:

`chisel client {{server_ip}}:{{server_port}} {{local_host}}:{{local_port}}:{{remote_server}}:{{remote_port}}`

- Connect to a Chisel server using username and password authentication:

`chisel client --auth {{username}}:{{password}} {{server_ip}}:{{server_port}} {{local_port}}:{{remote_server}}:{{remote_port}}`

- Initialize a Chisel server in reverse mode on a specific port, also enabling SOCKS5 proxy (on port 1080) functionality:

`chisel server -p {{server_port}} --reverse --socks5`

- Connect to a Chisel server at specific IP and port, creating a reverse tunnel mapped to a local SOCKS proxy:

`chisel client {{server_ip}}:{{server_port}} R:socks`
