## Command-line usage

To command a single socket of a strip, you will need to specify it either by using `--index` or by using `--name`. If not specified, the commands will act on the parent device: turning the strip off will turn off all sockets.

Example: Turn on the first socket (the indexing starts from zero):

    $ kasa --type strip --host <host> on --index 0

Example: Turn off the socket by name:

    $ kasa --type strip --host <host> off --name "Maybe Kitchen"
