SDP is absent in BLE. Broadcast/advertise frame and GATT client/server are used instead.

Several links:

  • BlueZ gatttool: command line tool to run common GATT procedures
  • BlueZ GATT’s ready profiles
  • hint: DBUS
  • GATT and DBUS example
  • How can I connect to the FitBit Zip over Bluetooth 4.0 LE on Linux with bluez?
