The Nordic Semiconductor nRF Sniffer (a Bluetooth Low Energy sniffer
[1]) uses the attached packet format between the host and a sniffer,
and the packet EVENT_PACKET is currently dissected in Wireshark in
packet-nordic_ble.c.  A future version of the sniffer will also allow
dissection of the other (control) packets.

What is the "board" for the BoardID?

Would a capture file using this LINKTYPE_ include all traffic between the host and the sniffer, including the 
host-to-sniffer packets such as REQ_FOLLOW?  (I assume from "UART" that this goes over a serial link between the 
sniffer and the host.)

Is there a publicly-available page on the Nordic Semiconductor Web site with this format information, or should we add 
a page on the tcpdump.org Web site, as is done for some other LINKTYPE_ values?
