Enables or disables the configured socket tunnel. 
timeout={0|seconds}] {0 is no timeout}
The timeout (specified in seconds) controls how long the tunnel will 
remain connected when there is no tunnel traffic. If the timeout value is 
zero, then no timeout is in effect and the socket tunnel will stay up until 
some other event causes it to close.

initiates the socket tunnel.

The initiating port: the port number that the Digi device uses to listen for 
the initial socket tunnel connection.

the socket tunnel and the Digi device. Currently, TCP and SSL are the 
two supported protocols. 
to_hostname={name|ip address}
The destination host: The hostname or IP address of the destination 
network device.

a connection to the destination device.
