[-m|--minor=minor (0-65535, default=0)]

The default UUID matches that which the "Beacon Toolkit" app uses.
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/beacon-toolkit/id728479775
UUID, major, minor and power may also be specified by setting the environment
variables `IBEACON_UUID,' `IBEACON_MAJOR,' `IBEACON_MINOR' and `IBEACON_POWER.'
Options set with command line switches always override defaults or environment.
NOTE: for environment variables to work, the following must be present
in your `sudoers' file:
Defaults env_keep += "IBEACON_UUID IBEACON_MAJOR IBEACON_MINOR IBEACON_POWER"
