 * @brief Establish a tunnel to a remote system
 *
 * Creates a "udp tunnel" to a remote system.  There must already be a local UDP listener for the
 * local side of the connection.  Because UDP is connectionless and we do not have a link protocol,
 * the udp tunnel will go in the connection table immediately in the "up" state.
