 I can connect via Bluetooth, but once I start the DFU update via nRF Connect I get an &amp;quot;Authentication is Insufficient&amp;quot; error 
 See the screenshot of the app below.

&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;CONFIG_BT_L2CAP_TX_BUF_COUNT&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You should only get this authentication error if you have &lt;a href="https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/kconfig/index.html#CONFIG_MCUMGR_SMP_BT_AUTHEN"&gt;CONFIG_MCUMGR_SMP_BT_AUTHEN&lt;/a&gt; is enabled in your project. However,&amp;nbsp; this symbol is disabled by default in the bt overlay file: &lt;a href="https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/blob/v3.0.99-ncs1-branch/samples/subsys/mgmt/mcumgr/smp_svr/overlay-bt.conf#L9"&gt;https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/blob/v3.0.99-ncs1-branch/samples/subsys/mgmt/mcumgr/smp_svr/overlay-bt.conf#L9&lt;/a&gt;, so I would not expect this error with the original sample code.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Could you please double check the .config output to verify that it is not enabled in your build?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:240px;max-width:320px;" src="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/4/pastedimage1661324192005v1.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is where the SMP characteristic permission levels gets set:&lt;/p&gt;
