?M - just a test * ?M is used for requesting the MAC address from the radio in order to use it for uIP6 and its stateless address auto configuration of its IPv6 address. This will make the native border router have the address that correspond to the MAC address of the slip-radio. (response is !M from the slip-radio)
?C - writes stuff to SLIP port!
?S - shows stats for SLIP port.
* ?C is used for requesting the currently used channel for the slip-radio. The response is !C with a channel number (from the slip-radio).
* !C is used for setting the channel of the slip-radio (useful if the motes are using another channel than the one used in the slip-radio).
