Hello,
I have questions on the Provisioner of a network. Reading through the documentation on Mesh Provisioning, I have come to understand that some amount of data has to be kept by the proivsioner on the last device it provisioned so it can provision the next device. I am also lead to believe that this information can be held in the devices flash memory, i.e light switch demo, or off board using the serial example.
I have a few questions on this data and the process of recovering from a device failure:
- What is the data needed by the provisioner?
- Can the provisioning data be saved off board and restored later? If so, how?
- What happens if this provisioning data is lost or becomes out of sync?
- If a provisioner is lost, how does a network recuperate?
