set-remote-interface Sets interface properties on the remote end. See Tunnel Settings. Parameters index Index of the channel. 0 for first created channel, 1 for second, etc.. values JSON object with values to change.	{"target": "tunnel", "action": "set-remote-interface", "index": 0, "values": {"enabled": false} }
set-preset Applies a tunnel preset. See Presets for more info. Parameters name Name of the tunnel preset. Required.	{"target": "tunnel", "action": "set-preset", "preset": "Bonding" }
