It's also called a symmetric discovery procedure and we could initiate this by feeding feed min and max values for inquiry intervals as well as # of inquiries to be performed. However, it's only defined in HCI and I realized that it's pretty tough to use it in the application layer (since we're using a high level programming using sockets). We recently wrote a paper on P2P file sharing using bluetooth and there, we used application layer emulation for this periodic inquiry mode; specifically, we used HCI_inquiry to discover nodes, but we simply used a socket to listen to a port to make a node available for discovery (i.e., implicitly in inquiry/page scan mode). Is there any better way that we could actually exploit this, yet exploiting high-level programming features of Bluez?
