Hi.

[quote user="amywei"]and another phone that its mac is not in whitelist alse can Identify the peripheral's mac and device name[/quote]

This is normal behaviour, just because you add a whitelist, does not mean that the device is invisible for other devices not on the whitelist.

Have you looked at any examples that implement a whitelist with Fast advertising?

I recommend that you take a look at the examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_hids_keyboard example.

Best regards,

Thanks，AndreasF

I wish to create a peripheral and use UART to tell the peripheral which addresses should be whitelisted? When receive the uart data ,I set the mac address use function err_code = sd_ble_gap_whitelist_set(addr_ptrs, whitelist_count); When debug , the err_code = NRF_SUCCESS, but the peripheral can not enter Fast advertising with whitelist, and another phone that its mac is not in whitelist alse can Identify the peripheral's mac and device name. I don't know why.

Hi.

[quote user=""] How can I set the whitelist address via uart without bonding?[/quote]

Do you wish to create a peripheral and use UART to tell the peripheral which addresses should be whitelisted?

You have to send either the MAC address or the Identity Resolving Key (IRK) over UART, and add the incoming data to your whitelist in the code.

You can try to connect with a device which is not in the whitelist.

[quote user=""] How can the peripheral start advertising with whitelist after reset the peripheral?[/quote]

I'm unsure what you mean here. You set up advertising with whitelist in your code.

[quote user=""] The following is the code all about whitelist function, please read and help me to solve this problem。[/quote]

Have you tried to debug the code and see what errors you get?
