+
+'list'::
+       This command shows a list of all device that are currently present

+
+'DEVICE discover'::
+       Runs a discovery for many hooks on the given device.
+
+       This will check if the hook can find for example a DHCP server or
+       DSLAM and thus predict for what the device should be used.
+
+'DEVICE identify'::
+       This command only works for Ethernet adapters and will make those
+       that support this feature flash for a few seconds.
+
+       It is handy to find the right device to put the cable in.
+
+'DEVICE monitor'::
+       This command creates a monitor interface for wireless modules.
+
+       An instance of link:tcpdump[8] will be started and show all
+       frames that are sent or received on the 802.11 layer (layer 2).
+
+'DEVICE status'::
+       This will show you very detailed information about the given device.
+
+'DEVICE unlock'::
+       This command will unlock the SIM card in a modem.
