Hi Pintu,

I am sorry for the last post, I see now I had misunderstood the question before. As per today, we don't support provisioning of mobile devices with the nRF Mesh app. I understand you want to have multiple phones connected to the same mesh network. To make another phone work as a part of the mesh network you will need to implement the provisioning yourself. You can take base in the mesh stack we use but you will need to make the phone a provisionee, and the proxy node needs to have a provisioner.

Another option is to implement a propietary solution, with the proxy node having a propietary BLE service that talks to a propietary app and "translate" the mesh messages between phone and the mesh network.

Does this provide some clarity for you? I will talk more to our mesh team tomorrow and will try to add more information to my answer here.

Best Regards,

Marjeris

Hi Msromero,

1) I am using nordic mesh application to provision nrf52832 DK with proxy_server example, When device is successful provision with mobile application it start again advertising with network id, now I have other mobile which have nordic mesh application and I want to join mesh network, so which data we need to fix so we can join mesh network from any mobile application? dose static network id is sufficient ?

2) Yes, nRF Connect app is showing provision node connected and If I am disconnect that node from mesh network then in other mobile I am able to connect provisioned node using nRF Connect app application but note able to connect using nRF Mesh app, dose that mean in secondary device I need to use GATT client and server model to enter in mesh network and need to write custom command and redirect that command to mesh application?

Thanks,

Pintu

Hi,

What do you mean with different "mobile applications"? Do you mean you want to connect to another mobile phone that the one you did the provisioning with? Maybe the proxy_server node is still connected to the mobile phone you used to provision?

If you go to the nRF Connect app in the mobile phone you used for provisioning, does it show the node as connected or disconnected?

Best Regards,
