This is not possible with the static provisioner, unfortunately. Like mentioned in my earlier reply, the static provisioner has its own limitation and its purpose is to be a tool to evaluate SDK examples.

Yes what I meant is that instead of using the random generated ID, can we define a network ID instead?

Hi,

What do you mean by "static network ID"? Can you elaborate?

And to clarify the question, are you asking if is possible to have a static network ID?

Hi thanks for the reply , but If I modify the Static provisioner code to be able to have a static network ID would that be possible ?

Hi,

Regarding provisioning a new node with the same address, by the specification the address of a newly provisioned node should be the increment of the last provisioned node. So trying to replace a node that is down with a new one with the same address would be out of specification.

The static provisioner works in a fixed and predefined way. It has its own limitations and is provided as a tool to evaluate SDK examples without the need to use a mobile application provisioner. Maybe the nRF Mesh app for mobile(iOS/Android) is better suited for your needs.

Hi thank you for the reply

Yes, I want to be able to replace the server that is down with a new one (with same address). The problem I am facing is that the static provisioner will provision everything from scratch and the entire process can be quite tedious if I have to re-provision 100 servers when only one or two servers are down for instance.

Hi,

[quote user=""]I want to know if the servers i configured using the provisioner is able to detect when one of these servers are down.[/quote]

I suggest you have a look at this thread.

[quote user=""]And if so, is the static provisioner able to replace the server that is down with another server with the same configurations as before?[/quote]

I assume by replace you mean remove the server that is down and provision a new one? By the "same configuration" do you want it to have the same address?
