Question about pairing/bonding?

Setting t that on Android you can bypass the pairing dialog if you know the pin in advance through a different channel.

So IOS corebluetooth framework will do all the work W. R. T the process of pairing and bonding? Not clear how this wocould work in practice.-BPA From:ETAN kissling <[email protected]> To:"<[Email protected]>" <[email protected]> Cc:Ble-dev <[email protected]> Sent:Wednesday, January 30,201 3: 38 AM Subject:Re: Question about pairing/bonding? BPA, you cannot initiate pairing from the IOS central side. instead, you have to read/write a characteristic value, and then let your peripheral respond with an "insufficient authentication" error. IOS will then initiate pairing, will store the keys for later use (bonding) and encrypts the link. as far as I know, it also caches discovery information, so that future connections can be set up faster.
