9Application demonstrating the BLE Direct Advertising capability. If no device is bonded
10to the peripheral, casual advertising will be performed. Once bonded, on every subsequent
11boot direct advertising to the bonded central will be performed. Additionally this sample
12provides two BLE characteristics. To perform write, devices need to be bonded, while read
13can be done just after connection (no bonding required).
