nrf52832 mesh sdk

[robbie_chengdu]

Dear,

software/hardware:

    nrf52832 mesh sdk v3.1.0

Q1: when friend feature node code can get? now just is bin file.

Q2: mesh has just four feature devices, friend feature,lpn feature,relay feature,proxy feature, can just two types device, one with friend,relay,proxy feature, other just with lpn feature

Q3:mesh has a startard SIG HCI SPEC?

Q4:in mesh sdk,has serial demo controlled by python in PC, whether has a C program to do this.（like HCI Mode）

Q5: any stable open-resource project that ran in HCI Mode（or Serial Mode） can provide?

thank you!

Hi Robbie, 

1. We are working on that but I don't know when it's available. I don't think it will be available in short time (1-2 months). The bin file for friend node we provided actually from Zephyr project. Zephyr is open source 

2. Yes, a node can have multiple roles, even capable of being LPN, friend, relay, proxy. But a node can't be LPN and friend/relay/proxy at the same time. 

3. Mesh rely on top of BLE, it does support HCI interface but it requires many layers on the host side as well. In our stack we don't have option to access HCI directly. 

4. No. We don't have a C program for it. Again we don't have HCI interface supported in our Mesh stack. 

5. You can think of using Zephyr. But to be able to run mesh you need all the layer on top of Link layer (bearer, network, transport, access).
