By which you mean not at all correct, presumably. :-)

I've updated the Wiki page to note that it's the BlueZ stack, and that (as per 
the history page on the BlueZ site) it first became part of the mainline kernel 
in 2.4.6.

[Wireshark-dev] support for Bluetooth protocol live capture

2011-10-27 Thread vijay
Can anyone tell me if wireshark support live capture of bluetooth traffic.
Wireshark wiki says
libpcap supports live capture of bluetooth packets , Wireshark can read pcap
files containing bluetooth traffic.
But wireshark cannot capture bluetooth traffic. I donot understand why it is
so? wont the above 2 features be
sufficient for live capture?

My computer doesnt have bluetooth support so I couldnt test the Bluetooth
traffic with wireshark.

Thanks,
Vijay

On Linux, yes.

 Wireshark wiki says libpcap supports live capture of bluetooth packets , 
 Wireshark can read pcap files containing bluetooth traffic.

It's so because nobody'd bothered to update the CaptureSetup/Bluetooth page on 
the Wireshark wiki to indicate that Bluetooth capturing is now supported if 
Wireshark is using a sufficiently-recent version of libpcap and running on a 
system with a kernel with the Affix Bluetooth stack (which I think is the basis 
of the official Bluetooth stack that's now a standard part of the kernel). :-)

 wont the above 2 features be sufficient for live capture?

Yes, so I updated the page.
