adb port forwarding to listen on any interface

I'm trying to redirect/forward a TCP port from the local machine to the device (where I have a server listening on a given port). The command I'm using is the following:

adb forward -a tcp:5555 tcp:5555

However, when I check with netstat I see that adb is only listening on 127.0.0.1. I need adb to listen on any IP not only the local host. Is this possible?
