	Which will most likely turn into something like (quick&dirty version)

	os.system("ifconfig %s %s" % (userDevice, userIP))

>3. There are other such commands for which i will be using python scripts. I came across pyCLI, but it doesn't have much documentation, so couldn't figure out how to move forward.

	Unless you intend to implement those commands internally, all you are
creating is a command line parser that spawns out to a hidden shell to
actually execute the native command executable...
