+
+ - :const:`BTPROTO_HCI` accepts ``(device_id,)`` where ``device_id`` is
+ either an integer or a string with the Bluetooth address of the
+ interface. (This depends on your OS; NetBSD and DragonFlyBSD expect
+ a Bluetooth address while everything else expects an integer.)

+ - :const:`BTPROTO_SCO` accepts ``bdaddr`` where ``bdaddr`` is a
+ :term:`bytes-like object` containing the Bluetooth address in a
+ string format. (ex. ``b'12:23:34:45:56:67'``) This protocol is not
