By default, the LPN does not respond with a verification after receiving an update from the friend node. How the LPN behaves is described in detail <a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.meshsdk.v5.0.0/md_doc_user_guide_modules_lpn_concept.html">here</a>, and<a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.meshsdk.v5.0.0/md_doc_user_guide_modules_lpn_integrating.html"> here for integration</a>&nbsp;(assuming you use the nRF5 SDK). In practice it just wakes up every X second/minute/hour and polls the friend node for updates until the friend queue is empty. The LPN will only ask for new data if the last update was received successfully, and retry if not.&nbsp;</p> <p>If you need to confirm the data sent, the LPN can always send data to its friend node, but that somewhat defeats the purpose of having a Low Power node, as a &quot;confirmation message&quot; will result in a lot of extra power used.</p> <p>Best regards,</p> <p>Simon</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
