mesh sniffer - NRF52840

Hi All,

I'm using Ellysis sniffer for debugging my ble mesh network.

I've made network setup using generic on/off application and I'm able to communicate and capture the sniffer log.

In sniffer log I see some packets are with locked symbol and how do I see complete packet. 

Screenshot is attached and what IV index is used in the application and what its?

  • Hi. 

    I assume this is because the sniffer needs the device keys in order to decrypt the messages, and I don't think the sniffer can sniff the device keys (formed during provisioning).
    I believe that the messages you are seeing are the configuration messages. 

    I haven't used the Ellisys sniffer myself, but I'll ask internally if there are a way to get around this. 

    Best regards, 
    Joakim
