The new sniffer is actually integrated as a Wireshark plugin and works great. I was going to set up the sniffer in my laptop today when I noticed that Nordic Semiconductor released a new version of their BLE sniffer. And it has a nice added feature that, when listing the devices it detects advertising around you, it automatically adds the device name if it’s advertised in plaintext… which is usually the case. It’s user interface is rather archaic, purely shell-based, but it works just great. I don’t even need to fire up any Linux VM to start poking around. Such a simple and small form factor sniffer that runs great on Windows and Linux. Until now, my sniffer of choice was the BLE sniffer by Nordic Semiconductor (you can get the dongle for $25 on Adafruit and install the software). Although for deep security analysis and experiments I do all Bluetooth and BLE things using either an Ubertooth One or my USRP (either B210 or B205mini **) and gr-bluetooth, I always start any experimentation with a basic sniffer.
