Sh DESCRIPTION
The
Nm
daemon handles Bluetooth Personal Area Networking services
in the system.
It can operate in client mode as a Personal Area Networking User
Pq PANU
or in server mode as Network Access Point
Pq NAP ,
Group ad-hoc Network
Pq GN
or PANU host.
Nm
connects to the system via a
Xr tap 4
virtual Ethernet device and forwards Ethernet packets to
remote Bluetooth devices using the Bluetooth Network Encapsulation
Protocol
Pq BNEP .
Pp
The PANU client is the device that uses either the NAP or GN
service, or can talk directly to a PANU host in a crossover
cable fashion.
Pp
A GN host forwards Ethernet packets to each of the connected PAN
users as needed but does not provide access to any additional networks.
Pp
The NAP service provides some of the features of an Ethernet bridge,
with the NAP host forwarding Ethernet packets between each of the
connected PAN users, and a different network
media.
Pp
Note, the only differences between NAP and GN services as implemented by
Nm
are in the SDP service record.
The bridging of packets by the NAP must be configured separately with
Xr brconfig 8 .
Pp
The options are as follows:
Bl -tag -width ".Fl a Ar address"
It Fl a Ar address
In client mode, address of remote server.
May be given as BDADDR or name, in which case
Nm
will attempt to resolve the address via the
Xr bt_gethostbyname 3
call.
It Fl c Ar path
In server mode, specify
Ar path
to the
Xr sdpd 8
control socket.
The default path is
Pa /var/run/sdp .
It Fl d Ar device
Restrict connections to the local
Ar device .
May be given as BDADDR or name, in which case
Nm
will attempt to resolve the address via the
Xr bt_devaddr 3
call.
Nm
will set the
Xr tap 4
interface physical address to the BDADDR
of the Bluetooth radio.
It Fl i Ar ifname
Nm
uses the
Xr tap 4
driver to create a new network interface for use.
Use this option to select a specific
Xr tap 4
device interface which must already be created.
It Fl l Ar limit
In server mode, limit the number of simultaneous connections.
The default limit is 7 for NAP and GN servers,
and 1 for a PANU server.
It Fl m Ar mode
Set L2CAP connection link mode.
Supported modes are:
Pp
Bl -tag -compact -width secure
It auth
require devices to be paired.
It encrypt
auth, plus enable encryption.
It secure
encryption, plus change of link key.
El
It Fl p Ar psm
Use an alternative L2CAP Protocol/Service Multiplexer
Pq PSM
for server mode or client mode
Pq when not using Service Discovery .
The default PSM for BNEP is 15
Pq 0x000f .
It Fl s Ar service
Name of
Ar service
to provide or connect to, the following services are recognised:
Pp
Bl -tag -compact -width PANU
It GN
Group ad-hoc Network.
It NAP
Network Access Point.
It PANU
Personal Area Networking User.
El
It Fl S Ar service
As per
Fl s
except that
Nm
will not use SDP services for connection setup.
El
Pp
When providing networking services, the Bluetooth PAN profile says that the
Sq Class of Device
property of the bluetooth controller SHALL include Networking capability
Pq set bit 0x020000 .
See
Xr btconfig 8
for details.
Pp
After
Nm
has set up the client or server connection and opened the
Xr tap 4
interface, it will create a pid file and detach.

Sh EXIT STATUS

Sh EXAMPLES
Dl ifconfig tap1 create
Dl btpand -a host -d ubt0 -s NAP -m encrypt -i tap1
Dl dhcpcd -q -b tap1
Pp
Will create an encrypted connection to the NAP on
Ar host ,
and link that to the
Ar tap1
interface.
Pp
Dl btpand -d ubt0 -s GN -m auth
Pp
Will create a Group Network requiring authentication to join and register
the GN service with the local SDP server.

Sh BUGS
There is no way to supply alternative values for the SDP record.
Pp
There is no way to set net type or multicast address filters.
Pp
Nm
does not do any address routing except to directly connected
unicast addresses.
All other packets are multicast.
Pp
As
Nm
uses the BDADDR of the Bluetooth radio as the physical address
of the tap, only one instance can be run per radio.
Pp
Nm
can only provide a single service.
