If run with no arguments, +.B +bdaddr +prints the chip manufacturer's name, and the current BD_ADDR. If the IEEE OUI index file "oui.txt" is installed on the system, +the BD_ADDR owner will be displayed. If the optional +[new bdaddr] argument is given, the device will be reprogrammed with that address. This can either be permanent or temporary, as specified +by the -t flag. In both cases, the device must be reset before the new address will become active. This can be done +with a 'soft' reset by specifying the -r flag, or a 'hard' reset by removing and replugging the device. +A 'hard' reset will cause the address to revert to the current non-volatile value. +.PP +.B +bdaddr +uses manufacturer specific commands to set the address, and is therefore device specific. For this reason, not all devices are supported, and not all +options are supported on all devices. +Current supported manufacturers are: +.B Ericsson, Cambridge Silicon Radio (CSR) +and +.B Zeevo + +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.BI -h +Gives a list of possible commands. +.TP +.BI -i\ <dev> +Specify a particular device to operate on.
