+`ProxyJump` and `ProxyCommand` can be used for SSH setup, but the Dosh UDP
+endpoint still has to be reachable directly from the client. Set `dosh_host` to
+the reachable UDP hostname or IP when it differs from the SSH alias target.

 ## Rust Library
 
 Dosh exposes a Rust transport for encrypted, reconnecting application streams.
