RE: PTS / linkkey issue

Hi Mike -

PTS may be requesting "no man in the middle protection" but what is your
system (BlueZ) requesting? If your system is also requesting no MITM then
that would explain what you are seeing.

If your system is requesting "man in the middle protection", then I think
that is what gets used resulting in an authenticated link key. Do you have
an HCIdump or PTSPV trace around so we can see what your device is asking
for.

At least that's the way I read the core spec. I could be wrong, that area is
a little confusing :-).
