Same appkeys different provisioner

[Agus123]

Hello, I'm building a custom app using the nRF Mesh Library for Android.

I'm using a server database in which I'm storing appkeys and netkeys values so that I can use those on different phones and still communicate with the network devices.

I've planned on exporting to my database the whole nRF mesh network but I'm trying to store as small values as possible.

So I've been using the same appkeys and netkeys with different phones, but no luck! Messages get sent but our devices won't listen to new devices. Is there some information I'm missing?

Thanks

Hi

There could be a few things.

If you're trying to do configuration (for example changing subscription address) you will need to use the Device key. The Device key is unique to each node. Please check out device key management on the Infocenter for more details.

It could also be that the IV index changes, and that you need to update it. Our suggestion would be to use something similar to the export function in the nRF Mesh app instead of setting it up separately on a new phone.

Best regards,

Simon

Ah yes... I've implemented the export functionality in my app before but the networks were starting to get heavier... I'll try again, maybe I'll find a workaround the size. Thank you!
