&lt;p&gt;The configuring of a node is never &amp;quot;done&amp;quot; in the same way the provisioning of a device is.
That is, while the provisioning process has some well defined steps it has to go through before the process is complete.
The provisioner node can always reconfigure a node with the config_client.
It is therefore never completely done configuring a node.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is possible to know when the configuring of a device is complete though, if you youself define how your node should be configured.
When the provisioner node receives a status message from the last step of the configuring of a device, you know the process is complete.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Therefor if your project is like the Light Switch example project from Mesh SDK 0.10, then when a &lt;code&gt;CONFIG_OPCODE_MODEL_SUBSCRIPTION_STATUS&lt;/code&gt; message is received, the configuring is complete.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
