F5 VPN redial

I would like to know how I can launch the F5 VPN Windows client, (passing credentials and establishing a connection to the host) without using the web interface.

I would like to do this programatically. Actually, I'd like the the 'Redial if line is dropped' to be honored in the connection properties, but I'll settle for having to check the connection and reestablishing it as needed.

I'm very new to this so please be gentle.
