Key Words

Key words contain "-o, -p, -P". Meanings of these suffixes are as follows:

-o refers to operation code (key). It is a hexadecimal number, such as 0x19.
-p refers to port number. Port numbers range from 0 to 48. When p is 0, all ports are referred to.
-P refers to parameters. Three is the maximum number of parameters. Multiple parameters should be separated by semicolons. (e.g. p1:p2:p3).
