Again:
SSH does not care where is at, or how to get to, the target IP address.
That's the task of routing protocols, nameserver protocols, and on and on 
and on.  Transporting the packets is the task of the TCP/IP protocol... 

If the IP is "route-able", and the SSH server is listening, you will login 
for as long as you have the correct tokens.
