How to enable encrypted link in nRF52832 firmware?

[snowuyl]

peerManagerInit() has called pm_init() and setting security parameters. But nRF connect shows "Unencrypted link". How can I enabled encrypted link in nRF52832 firmware?

int main(void) {

...

peerManagerInit(true);
gapParamsInit();

...

}

in SDK17.1.0, you can see how the ble_app_hrs example calls pm_conn_secure() in the BLE_GAP_EVT_CONNECTED event in ble_evt_handler() in main.c.
