+
+The command will scan the host to find the NUMA nodes, and all the PCI devices, and map the PCI devices back to the NUMA node.
+
+It also provides a way to see the list of CPUs attached to the node.
+
+* Limitations
+** Device class
+For now only the following classes of hardware are cared for:
+- NVMe
+- network
+- GPU
