How to get the payload from iBeacon / BLE ads

Question

How do you get the advertising payload for the Bluetooth LE emitter in Linux?

In particular, I configured arduino and R-PI using hcitool to act like iBeacons.

I am looking for a team to print out what is the current ad load for the device.

Answer 1

At Radius Networks, we have compiled a set of scripts that analyze iBeacon identifiers from BLE ads found on Linux. Here you can find a description .

If you just want to see the raw bytes of ads, you can start scanning on Linux with:

sudo hcitool lescan --duplicates &

:

sudo hcidump --raw 

, .

Answer 2

libpcap-1.0 + Bluetooth, Wireshark/tshark/tcpdump Bluetooth - BTLE, .

LE Wireshark, Bluetooth LE, :

sudo hcitool lescan --duplicates &

, , Bluetooth, , ( BTLE):

sudo hcitool spinq
