SCAN TYPE ACTIVE

[Allen23122452121]

Hello！

I'm writing a program that performs both advertising and scanning simultaneously. I've configured active scanning and scannable advertising, but it seems that scanning doesn't send scan requests. Why is that?

During debugging, the scanner has already triggered the scan event callback and received the advertising packet information, but the advertiser did not trigger the scan_response_handler. When I disabled BT_LE_ADV_OPT_FILTER_SCAN_REQ, the advertiser started triggering a lot of scan_response_handler events, but none of them contained the MAC address of my device.

Looking forward to your help.

Hi,

If I understand you correctly, you test by checking if the scan response packets match the central. And for that to work, you should configure the central to scan with the identity address using CONFIG_BT_SCAN_WITH_IDENTITY=y.
