+ * @function metisTcpTunnel_Create
+ * @abstract Creates a TCP tunnel to a remote system.
+ * @discussion
+ *   The two addresses must be the same type (i.e. both INET or INET6) and cannot point to the same system.
+ *
+ *   The tunnel will look just like an in-bound connection after its built.  It exposes the standard
+ *   MetisIoOperations so it can be put in the MetisConnectionTable.
+ *
+ *   The connection will go in the table immediately, but will be in the "down" state until the
+ *   connection is established.

+ *
+ * @param <#param1#>
