NAME
       btscanner - ncurses-based scanner for Bluetooth devices

SYNOPSIS
       btscanner [--help] [--cfg <file>] [--no-reset]

DESCRIPTION
       This  manual  page  was	written	 for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
       because the original program does not have a manual page.

       btscanner is a tool designed specifically to extract as	much  informa‐
       tion  as	 possible  from	 a Bluetooth device without the requirement to
       pair. A detailed information screen extracts HCI and  SDP  information,
       and  maintains an open connection to monitor the RSSI and link quality.
       btscanner is based on the BlueZ Bluetooth stack, which is included with
       recent  Linux kernels, and the BlueZ toolset. btscanner also contains a
       complete listing of the IEEE OUI numbers and class lookup tables. Using
       the information gathered from these sources it is possible to make edu‐
       cated guesses as to the host device type.

OPTIONS
       --help Show a help text and exit.

       --cfg <file> Use <file> as the config file.

       --no-reset Do not reset the Bluetooth adapter before scanning.

BUGS
       Please report any bugs to Tim Hurman <tim.hurman@pentest.co.uk>.

LICENCE
       btscanner is covered by the GNU General Public License (GPL).
