### NAME

sdpquery - SDP query utility

### SYNOPSIS

sdpquery -h sdpquery [-d device] -a address command [parameters ...] sdpquery [-c path] -l command [parameters ...]

### DESCRIPTION

The sdpquery utility attempts to query the specified Service Discovery Protocol (SDP) server. Remote SDP servers are identified by their address. Connection to the local SDP server is made via the control socket. The sdpquery utility uses Service Search Attribute Requests and prints results to standard output and error messages to standard error.

The options are as follows:

-a address
  Connect to the remote device with the specified address. The address can be specified as BD_ADDR or a name. If a name was specified, the sdpquery utility attempts to resolve the name via bt_gethostbyname(3). If no remote address is given, sdpquery attempts to contact a local SDP server via the control socket.

-c path
  Specify path to the control socket. The default path is ```/var/run/sdp`.

-d device
  Connect from the local device with the specifed address. The device can be specified by BD_ADDR or device name. See btconfig(8) for a list of devices available. If no device is specified, the sdpquery utility will use the best available.

-l
  Query the local SDP server via the control socket.

-h
  Display usage message and exit.

The currently supported commands in sdpquery are:

Browse[ group]
  Browse for services. The group parameter is a 16-bit UUID of the group to browse. If omitted, the Public Browse Group. is used.
