IV Index update LPN

Hello,

What happens with the LPN firmware if it currently has an IV index of 0 and loses power for an extended period of time. When it gets power, the network that it is on has move all the way to IV index 2.

Will it be able to get a friend?

Will the friend be able to update the IV index of the LPN to 2?

Can the LPNs do an IV index recovery procedure like normal mesh nodes can?

  • I got the confirmation, there is a definition 
    MESH_FEATURE_LPN_ACT_AS_REGULAR_NODE_OUT_OF_FRIENDSHIP
    If that set to 1, it will act as regular node and the scanner will be executed when the friendship is terminated. Have a look at event_send() in lpn.c . It will enable scanner and the AD_LISTENER will take effective. 


    But be careful when using this as it will draw lots of current as a normal mesh node.
