Uses a random port number as the local port for 
establishing tunneling connections to other devices. 
Restores the default reconnect time value for 
connect mode tunneling. 
Defaults the connect mode start character. 
Sets an email profile to use to send an email alert 
upon establishing a connect mode tunnel. 
<number> = the number of the email profile to use. 
email disconnect <number> 
Sets an email profile to use to send an email alert

with the host above it, to adjust the order of the 
defined hosts. 
reconnect time <milliseconds> 
Sets the reconnect time value for tunneling 
connections established by the device in 
milliseconds. <milliseconds> = timeout in 
milliseconds.
