RE: Public address instead of random BLE central

I've found the macro BT_ADDR_IS_STATIC.

That is how I used it :

In my connected callback.

I let the ticket public if anyone has the same issue.

I looked deeper into how random/public addresses work. And I understood that public addresses need to be register with the IEEE registration authority.

So, instead, I will use static mac address which is free and pre-programmed in your chips.

My question now is, in my Peripheral firmware, how do I know if the random address I get is private or static ? So I can do directed advertising on either public or static random address, regarding which one my central is using.

Best regards
