Do not close bluetooth connection via CLI

Question

I'm creating a bluetooth connection to my device, like so:

hcitool cc 01:02:03:04:05:06

That works fine for a few seconds, then the connection automatically closes. How do I keep linux from auto-closing the connection?

Answer 1

You will probably want to brush up on the hcitool flags. My first guess would be that you are not completing the authentication but debug/verbose or logs are the best place to start looking.
