Hi,
Is it possible to add a static bluetooth address to the whitelist?
I am using SDK 14.2.0, device is nrf52832 + peer manager.

Hi,
I am very sorry for not getting back to you previously. I was out-of-office for some time lately.
Sadly it looks like Peer Manager is not designed to work together with a custom whitelist. From Peer Manager documentation: "Note that if you include the Peer Manager in an application and want to use whitelisting, the whitelist must be created by the Peer Manager." I will do some investigation into what is possible, and see if the whitelist functionality within Peer Manager can be altered or disabled, or if there is some way to get Peer Manager to accept a non-peer address for the whitelist. I should have a clear answer within a couple of days, and hopefully a working example.
Regards,
Terje

Hi I am also trying to the same but I dont get it run with static address. It would be nice to have a solution for that.
Figured I would add my thoughts for anyone looking to do the same and came across this. I believe tesc's (Terje) answer is correct. The reason it didn't work here is because the BLE address looks to be from a Samsung tablet, according to the comment. Smartphones, tablets, ... do not use their static address. Instead they use an IRK (Identity Resolving Key). This is why there was no error code setting the whitelist yet it would not connect. The IRK isn't easy to get, and generally it looks like they discourage you from doing this. I have come across posts in the past saying it is possible though ...
