focuses on the Bluetooth-specific actions and does not provide a detailed explanation
of the network command ip.
Enter pand -s to start pand on the host H1. Subsequently, establish a connection on
the host H2 with pand -c baddr1. If you enter ip link show on one of the
hosts to list the available network interfaces, the output should contain an entry like the
following:
bnep0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop qlen 1000
link/ether 00:12:34:56:89:90 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
Instead of 00:12:34:56:89:90, the output should contain the local device address
baddr1 or baddr2. Now this interface must be assigned an IP address and activated.
On H1, do this with the following two commands:
ip addr add 192.168.1.3/24 dev bnep0
ip link set bnep0 up
On H2, use the following commands:
ip addr add 192.168.1.4/24 dev bnep0
ip link set bnep0 up
Now H1 can be accessed from H2 at the IP 192.168.1.3. Use the command ssh
192.168.1.4 to access H2 from H1, assuming H2 runs an sshd, which is activated
by default in SUSE Linux Enterprise®. The command ssh 192.168.1.4 can also
be run as a normal user.
Data Transfer from a Mobile Phone to the Computer
The second example shows how to transfer a photograph created with a mobile phone
with a built-in digital camera to a computer (without incurring additional costs for the
transmission of a multimedia message). Although the menu structure may differ on
various mobile phones, the procedure is usually quite similar. Refer to the manual of
your phone, if necessary. This example describes the transfer of a photograph from a
Sony Ericsson mobile phone to a laptop. The service Obex-Push must be available on
the computer and the computer must grant the mobile phone access. In the first step,
the service is made available on the laptop. You need a special service daemon running
on the laptop to get the data from the phone. If the package kbluetooth is installed,
you do not need to start a special daemon. If kbluetooth is not installed, use the
