Can't detect mobile devices with IoT

    Hello Everyone, 

    I have an AP 510 (APIN0515) and I need to detect some class of beacons and forward them to a server through HTTPS. 

    On the server I successfully receive signals through AP from sensors and beacons, but I'm not able to make the AP detect an Android (12) device configured to send advertisement via BLE. I tried to configure it as an iBeacon and as Eddystone, both UID and URL with no luck.

    As iBeacon i suspect that the reason could be that I cannot set flags to 020106, but only to 020102 (that seems to be the only difference between my android ble packet and other successfully detected iBeacon)

    Anyone has suggestion? For sure I'm missing something

    Thanks in advance

    I found that the Android Device MAC Address is detected but filtered due to Private MAC Address by AP BLE Input Filter.

    Can I disable it?

    We do filter private-resolvable and private-non-resolvable addresses and we create devices for public and random-static addresses only in regards to the APs BLE device table. 
    Using BLE data service all sources are forwarded via the IoT transport but with BLE telemetry you will only get the BLE devices with none private sources addresses because they are not in the APs BLE device table.
