How to pair but not bond without using pm_peer_delete_all()?

[fccc]

I am using sdk 11, s130, nrf 51822.

Before getting into the question I ask in the title, I would like to ask this first:

1. Is it correct that every time I call pm_peer_delete_all(), it will cost one 'life' from the 10000 lifetime of flash for erasing?

If the above is true, then:

2. How to pair but not bond, without calling pm_peer_delete_all()?

Hi,

1. Yes.

2. The Peer manager has a bond field in the security parameters that you pass when it is initialized. By setting that to 0 you indicate that bonding is not supported. With this change pairing will take place as before, but there will be no bonding (storing of bonding information such as keys) and hence no writes to flash.
