Unable to advertise with BT_LE_ADV_OPT_FILTER_SCAN_REQ option

[Avinash Chaudhari]

Hello,

I want to use advertising filtering policy in order to be connectable with all the devices and want to reject all the scan response in order to conserve current consumption.

I tried handling scan response as well but still it sends scan response with empty data. I implemented the above code by taking reference from Bluetooth Low Energy Fundamentals course. 

Below is proj.config file:

Errors: It is not advertising and also filter accept list does not work as intended.

Kindly let me know how to implement the accept filter list for filtering  scan responses.

Hello,

I don't think this was working on v2.3.0 of NCS, can you check out (current latest is v2.4.0):
https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/zephyr/samples/bluetooth/peripheral_accept_list/README.html

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I will check it on the newer version.

Hi,

The new v2.4.0 does not even detect when we connect the microcontroller to the PC in order to program it.

[Kenneth]

I think it may be due to missing nrfutil:
https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/Development-tools/nrf-util 

Try to add nrfutil to path, or you can also try to use the legacy nrfjprog.

Hello Kenneth,

It works with nrfjprog. But while building I am getting this error:
