    thank you for your replay....

    yes, i have static key... before advertising i have set a passkey(123456) by using the API sd_ble_opt_set... its working fine.. but the thing is this pass key will be asked when we are going for a bonding... you can connect directly without bond...

    what i need is a connection should be established after entering the pass key...

    1.how to create whitelist? 2. in your paragraph you mentioned...on connection only one characterictics should available dat is used to unlock the other services ryt? but how can i implement it in my code?

    There is no passkey entry support for connections in the BLE spec, so what you are asking is not generally possible. If you have control over the IRK of the connecting device, you could set up a whitelist on the slave for it, but this is a 128-bit key. Not all central devices will let you set the IRK, so this is not a good solution however.

    The other solutions I mentioned are protection of the database only, and does not prohibit connections. This can be solved in code by either using the BLE_GAP_CONN_SEC_MODE_SET_ENC_WITH_MITM macro on the read and write permissions of the attributes when you add them (and require security as soon as the device connects), or by setting the attribute rd_auth / wr_auth flags to 1 if you want to go the authorization route (App gets asked everytime a write/read operation happens).
