&lt;p&gt;The directed advertising packets only include the peripherals address and the centrals address, please see &lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/4/8524.Core_5F00_v4.1.pdf"&gt;Bluetooth Core Specification 4.1&lt;/a&gt;, Volume 6, Part B, Section 2.3.1.2.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Directed advertising with high duty cycle only lasts for 1.28 seconds, and is normally used to do fast reconnections. For slower reconnections, you can use directed advertsing with low duty cycle.
