could Bluetooth peripheral start pairing process

[alireza sadeghpour]

Hi,

I am developing a device based on nrf52840 soc, and the rule of my device is peripheral. I want to know, if a connection was established, could my device start the pairing process? or the pairing process should be started only from the central side?

and If yes, which API would let me start pairing process?

thanks

Hi,

A BLE_GAP_EVT_CONNECTED event will be generated upon connection. See the Peer manager module for more info on how to implement pairing in your project.
