Control n devices using 1 provisioner

Question

Hello, 
 I'm creating a project where i have a nrf5340dk as provisioner (controlled by uart) and i want to have multiple lights or sensors in my network. How can i use the provisioner as a client to all of them? 
 Do i need to create a client to all of them or is there a way to create only 1 client and change the unicast address to which send the message. 
 Thank you for your response.

Hello again David!

If provisioner DK wants to communicate with various server models on various nodes "one at a time", then it only needs one instance of corresponding client model. To do this, after finishing sending messages and processing a response, provisioner can change the publish configuration of the client model instance on the DK to make it talk to another node. 
 If provisioner DK wants to communicate with various server models on various nodes "all together at the same time" (which no one would usually do), then it needs as many instances of corresponding client models as number of parallel communications it wants to do. 
 
 Best regards, 
 Elfving
