For example, "/system routerboard usb power-reset duration=10s" will turn off USB port power for 10 seconds.

RB2011 series have micro USB port which operates in host mode when USB device is attached through USB OTG cable. Some vendor cables require forced host mode to recognize connected device.
Available properties:
- usb-mode (automatic | force-host; Default: "automatic") - Defines USB port mode.
Note: In RouterOS v5 this setting was called "mode".

Available properties:
- type (USB-type-A | mini-PCIe; Default: "USB-type-A") - Type of enabled port.
