How to implement a mesh to BLE connection without a proxy node

[mr_jj]

According to the answer here, Nordic currently doesn't offer a proxy node implementation.

What would be the best way of getting started to create a proxy node? Are there any examples of how to create a custom BLE write and notify characteristic that can work in conjunction with the BLE mesh?

This post might provide you with an update to gauge whether to wait for Proxy support or press ahead with a custom BLE/Mesh solution.

I assume that you refer to the upcoming nRF5 SDK for Mesh release with GATT bearer and Proxy feature. Should be out within a couple of weeks.
