in the Bluetooth case you can't just do the scanning like this. You have
to setup the device via BlueZ first. Then it will list it. So you would
have to use CreateDevice or CreatePairedDevice from BlueZ to make the
device available to ConnMan. Either use bluetooth-wizard or test-device
from the BlueZ test scripts for this.

There are still some details missing to get this working without any
troubles. You need a device with PAN support and NAP UUID.

There is no concept for local and peer device. Bluetooth networks are
working differently. You just get a bnep0 interface that is directly
attached to the remote device. In the client case (with ConnMan) this is
a point-to-point connection with the MAC address of the peer device.

In case of NAP, then ConnMan also uses DHCP for the address assignment.
When using GN then link-local addresses (aka Avahi) have to be used.

Once the NAP connection works smoothly then these should show up as
ConnMan connections. Also with Bluetooth you get a 1:n model. This is
different to WiFi. One Bluetooth adapter can connect multiple remote
device at the same time.
