How to know if a particular device is in under mesh network or not?

[bivay]

I want to know status of each node in Mesh network.

If anyone fails a device(say client) sends a message on uart that particular node(server) is not connected.

Hi,

There are a couple of mechanisms in Bluetooth mesh that you can use for monitoring other nodes: Heartbeat, and the Health model.

If you want to monitor several devices you can use periodic Health model status messages. Both the Health Model and Heartbeat are supported by our nRF5 SDK for Mesh.

Thanks for reply. I have one client and several server nodes. some of server is not directly in range of client.

then can I get health status of nodes which is out of range to client.

Hi,

Yes. As with all models, messages are relayed through the mesh network.
