As mentioned in my reply, the static random address is fixed random number stored in a special register in flash, the FICR.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can set your own address every time the application boots up, effectively overriding the default address and using your own one, of the type you see fit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: why are the random addresses   the some?</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/1597?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 16 Aug 2013 06:32:07 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:5c06a840-b1a1-496d-82aa-afc58dc0da5e</guid><dc:creator>Carles</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi there,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;By default the SD used the &amp;quot;Static Random&amp;quot; address type as defined by the Specification in GAP 10.8.1.
This means that it is a random number but static: i.e. it does not change at all, it is actually stored in flash in a special register called the FICR and loaded from there every time the SD is initialized.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You sound like you require a random private (non-resolvable) address, which is designed to change periodically. To do this, simply generate your own random number and use:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;sd_ble_gap_address_set()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;to set it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;
