Lights control of several mobile phones after mesh networking

[jizhengzhong]

I want to achieve:          
 1. Mobile application networking with multi-lamp mesh          
 2. After mesh networking, many smartphones control all lights independently through proxy nodes. I hope you can give a demo. Thank you.

Hi, 

Current nRFMesh app (v2.0.3) support exporting network database and import that to other phones (look for the Export and Import feature in the main menu). However this feature is mainly to support having multiple GATT provisioners (phones). 

My understanding is that you want to provision phones to join the network and works as a normal node via a GATT proxy node. This is not supported out of the box yet. 

What you can do is to create a new app that can use the exported network data but has no provisioner feature. Also you would need to assign an address to that phone manually.

Hi,

 Thanks for your reply,now I use nrf5_SDK_for_Mesh_v2.2.0\examples\light_switch\proxy_client and proxy_server test, my phone can  control lights by nRF Mesh Groups ,but other phones can not  be controlled by proxy nodes,if i want to use other mobile phones for the same control, what should i do?

Please use latest Mesh SDK, the current mesh SDK is v3.2

You need to export the network and then import it to another phone. As instructed in my last reply. 

Please be aware that this feature is not supported out of the box. So I strongly suggest you to get familiar with the app and how provisioning, proxy role work.
