mesh: scan params specify random address, but no random address set

mesh: scan params specify random address, but no random address set

[Steve Brown]

I'm using the Zephyr hci implementation on a bt dongle. It complains
that no random address is set when scan enable is sent.

My RPi doesn't care if a random address is set or not.

Hi Steve,
You need an address set because of directed advertising. You need to update your zephyr project to include a random, address, this is covered quite extensively on the zephyr documentation and discussions for Nordic chipsets.
Thanks,
