Hi,
Please read more about provisioner and provisioning process here: https://www.bluetooth.com/blog/provisioning-a-bluetooth-mesh-network-part-1/
The provisioner is needed to configure a node to the network, exchanging the keys. After the node(s) is setup you don't need the provisioner in the network anymore.
Hi Hung Bui,
In provided link "smartphone or other mobile computing device" work as a provisioner then where is given provisioner code in light_switch folder is used?
The provisioner can be any device, it's just a suggestion that the provisioner should be smart phone or other mobile computing device. We just demonstrate a simple provisioner with the NRF52 in the code.
