+MeshCfgclient - BlueZ PB-Adv based Bluetooth Mesh Provisioner
+*************************************************************
+
+Copyright (C) 2019  Intel Corporation. All rights reserved.
+
+Compilation and installation
+============================
+
+In addition to main BlueZ requirements, MeshCfgclient needs the following:
+	- JSON library
+
+Configuration and options
+=========================
+
+	--enable-mesh
+
+		Build mesh-cfgclient and other Bluetooth Mesh based tools
+
+Storage for mesh configuration file
+===================================
+
+The mesh-cfgclient tool generates a mesh configuration file in JSON format:
+	- mesh_db.json
+that contains information about the current state of the configured mesh
+network.
+
+The default directory for mesh-cfgclient configuration file is
+/home/<username>/.config/mesh-cfgcli
+
+To specify a custom storage directory, run mesh-config tool as:
+
+	meshctl -c <config_dir_name>
+
+If a configuration file is not found, it is assumed that a mesh network
+does not exist. In this case, the tool may be used to generate a new  mesh
+network by invoking "create" command from the main menu and, on a successful
+completion of this command, an initial configuration file is written.
+
+If the configuration file is present, then "create" command will fail. This
+is done so that the existing configuration is not accidentally overwritten.
+If the intention is to create a new network then, the existing mesh
+configuration file has to be either moved or dleted prior to running the
+mesh-cfgclient tool. Also, a new custom storage location may be
+specified for a new network on the start up as a command line option.
