Connection Filtering

Connection Filtering allows the user to view a subset of the total available packets within the Frame Display. The subset can include data from a single Bluetooth connection, or all of the BR/EDR packets, all of the low energy packets, all of the 802.11 packets, or all of the HCI packets.

Bluetooth Applicability

A connection (device pair) is identified by

  1. A Link for Classic Bluetooth,
  2. An Access Address for Bluetooth low energy.

The link ID is a number that the ComProbe software assigns to identify a pair of devices in a BR/EDR connection. In the Frame Display details pane, the Baseband layer contains the link ID field if the field’s value is not 0.

An Access Address is contained in every Bluetooth low energy packet. The Access Address identifies a connection between a slave and a master or an advertising packet.

Connection filtering displays only the frames, protocols, summary, details, and events for the selected connections.

Note: Connection Filters are not persistent across sessions.
