I want to create a SSH tunnel but I dont know how to identify my Windows 7 machine.

In the command below, what do I have to put replace me@win7_machine with in order for it to work? Is it my username@IP_address? username@pcname? 

 ssh -R 12345:localhost:3306 me@win7_machine -N

In order to be able to ssh to your windows box you need a running ssh server on the windows box, and the ip address.
