/PATH=(n1[.n2.n3.n4.n5.n6]) Specifies the path to the device on the bus. The path is used to uniquely identify a device if the device does not have a serial number. The path specification is a series of six or fewer numbers, where: n1 is the number of the root hub (at tier 0). n2 through n6 are port numbers for downstream hubs at tiers 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. For example, /PATH=1.4.3 indicates that the device is in turn plugged into port 3 of the second tier, which is plugged into port 4 of the first tier, which in turn is plugged into the root hub 1.
