User Configuration Overview
(Click here to see a video on what you receive in your Sodera package...)Frontline® Sodera™ is capable of simultaneously capturing and demodulating all RF channels and packet types defined in all Bluetooth specification versions up to and including 4.2. The user is not required to specify the addresses of the devices to be captured or their roles (master or slave) during the connection lifetime. Prior to capturing data the user does not need to enter any information (PIN, OOB, long term key, link key) used to encrypt or decrypt data. Sodera provides live simultaneous capture of all 79 Classic Bluetooth channels and 40 Bluetooth low energy channels storing data for both live and post-capture analysis.
Sodera™ uses a two-stage capture-analysis process. First, Record will activate the Sodera™ datasource to begin capturing data from all Bluetooth devices in range. In the Analyze stage, the user selects one or more wireless or wired devices for analysis and Sodera™ will begin sending captured data that is to/from those devices to the Frontline analysis software. The data appears in the Frame Display, Message Sequence Chart, Coexistence View, Bluetooth Timeline, low energy Bluetooth Timeline, PER Stats, Event Display etc.
If any keys needed for decryption are known from past captures those keys are automatically applied to the devices under test. Prior to protocol analysis the user can enter any unknown keys. Sodera will identify the specific key necessary for data decryption, for example Link Key, Passkey, PIN, Temporary Key.
