irk as the only security perimeter

Question

Hello, Nordic! 
 In our entertainment project, nrf51 based devices exclusively utilizes either central or periph. role. All of them are headless (body mounted markers, etc). The environment is hostile (in the sense, that some cheater could spoof device address, advertising it as valid periph.)
Besides, we don't need a connection at all, and wish to relay upon pre-shared set of IRKs, belonging to peripherals. What we need is just RSSI and some extra info in advert. 
 Is it right case to use private addresses for?
If so, which API does sdk provide to hash/rehash the address in central and how IRK is being set in peripheral? 
 I tend to use S130 and if it is redudant for scenario explained, I'd appreciated an advice.

Hi Stan, 
 It's possible to distribute the IRKs in advance and use the IRK to generate Random resolvable private address on each of the advertiser. It's supported by our softdevices (S110, S120, S130), please have a look in the description of the sd_ble_gap_address_set() function to know how you can tell the softdevice to use Random resolvable address, when to generate new one. And to the sd_ble_opt_set() ( and ble_gap_opt_t ->ble_gap_opt_privacy_t) to know how to set the IRK. 
 I just want to know how you would deal with the attacker that can spoof the device address ? Even if you use resolvable random address and can change it periodically, the attacker can still simply copy the new address and spoof it when you update your address. 
 Some little more on the security requirement and the implementation of your application would give better understanding.
