Encrypted Advertising
Overview
This sample demonstrates the use of the encrypted advertising feature, such as:
the exchange of the session key and the initialization vector using the Key Material characteristic,
the encryption of advertising payloads,
the decryption of those advertising payloads,
and the update of the Randomizer field whenever the RPA is changed.
To use the bt_ead_encrypt()
and bt_ead_decrypt()
functions, you must enable
the Kconfig symbol CONFIG_BT_EAD
.
While this sample uses extended advertising, it is not mandatory when using the encrypted advertising. The feature can be used with legacy advertising as well.
Requirements
Two boards with Bluetooth Low Energy support
Two boards with a push button connected via a GPIO pin, see the Button sample for more details
Building and Running
This sample can be found under samples/bluetooth/encrypted_advertising in the Zephyr tree.
See Bluetooth samples for details.
This sample uses two applications, so two devices need to be setup. Flash one device with the central application, and another device with the peripheral application.
The two devices should automatically connect if they are close enough.
After the boards are connected, you will be asked to press the configured push button on both boards to confirm the pairing request.
Here are the outputs you should get by default:
