-## **Breaking changes**
-- All connection oriented callbacks now receive a reference to `NimBLEConnInfo`, the `ble_gap_conn_desc` has also been replace with `NimBLEConnInfo` in the functions that received it.
-- All functions that take a time input parameter now expect the value to be in milliseconds instead of seconds.
-- Removed Eddystone URL as it has been shutdown by google since 2021.
-- NimBLESecurity class removed.
-- `NimBLEDevice` Ignore list functions removed.
-- `NimBLEDevice::startSecurity` now returns a `bool`, true on success, instead of an int to be consistent with the rest of the library.
-- `NimBLEDevice::getInitialized` renamed to `NimBLEDevice::isInitialized`.
-- `NimBLEDevice::setPower` no longer takes the `esp_power_level_t` and `esp_ble_power_type_t`, instead only an integer value in dbm units is accepted.
-- `NimBLEDevice::setOwnAddrType` no longer takes a `bool nrpa` parameter.
-- `NimBLEDevice::getClientListSize` replaced with `NimBLEDevice::getCreatedClientCount`.
-- `NimBLEDevice::getClientList` was removed.
-- `NimBLEServer::disconnect` now returns `bool`, true = success,  instead of `int` to be consistent with the rest of the library.
-- `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onMTUChanged` renamed to `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onMTUChange` to be consistent with the client callback.
-- `NimBLEServer::getPeerIDInfo` renamed to `NimBLEServer::getPeerInfoByHandle` to better describe it's use.
-- `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onPassKeyRequest` has been replaced with `NimBLEServer::onPassKeyDisplay` which should display the pairing pin that the client is expected to send.
-- `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onAuthenticationComplete` now takes a `NimBLEConnInfo&` parameter.
-- `NimBLEClient::getServices` now returns a const reference to std::vector<NimBLERemoteService*> instead of a pointer to the internal vector.

-- `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onPassKeyRequest` has been changed to `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onPassKeyEntry` which takes a `NimBLEConnInfo&` parameter and does not return a value. Instead or returning a value this callback should prompt a user to enter a pin number which is sent later via `NimBLEDevice::injectPassKey`.
-- `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onConfirmPIN` renamed to `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onConfirmPasskey` and no longer returns a value and now takes a `NimBLEConnInfo&` parameter. This should be used to prompt a user to confirm the pin on the display (YES/NO) after which the response should be sent with `NimBLEDevice::injectConfirmPasskey`.
-- `NimBLEAdvertising::setMinPreferred` and `NimBLEAdvertising::setMaxPreferred` have been removed, use `NimBLEAdvertising::setPreferredParams` instead.

-- `NimBLEAdvertisementData::getPayload` now returns `std::vector<uint8_t>` instead of `std::string`.
-- The callback parameter for `NimBLEScan::start` has been removed and the blocking overload of `NimBLEScan::start` has been replaced by an overload of `NimBLEScan::getResults` with the same parameters.
-- `NimBLEAdvertisedDeviceCallbacks` Has been replaced by `NimBLEScanCallbacks` which contains the following methods: `onResult`, `onScanEnd`, and `onDiscovered
-- - `NimBLEScanCallbacks::onResult`, functions the same as the old `NimBLEAdvertisedDeviceCallbacks::onResult` but now takes aa `const NimBLEAdvertisedDevice*` instead of non-const.
-- - `NimBLEScanCallbacks::onScanEnd`, replaces the scanEnded callback passed to `NimBLEScan::start` and now takes a `const NimBLEScanResults&` and `int reason` parameter.
-- - `NimBLEScanCallbacks::onDiscovered`, This is called immediately when a device is first scanned, before any scan response data is available and takes a `const NimBLEAdvertisedDevice*` parameter.
-- `NimBLEScan::stop` will no longer call the `onScanEnd` callback as the caller should know its been stopped when this is called.

-- `NimBLECharacteristic::notify` no longer takes a `bool is_notification` parameter, instead `indicate()` should be called to send indications.
-- `NimBLECharacteristicCallbacks::onNotify` removed as unnecessary, the library does not call notify without app input.
-- `NimBLECharacteristicCallbacks::onStatus` No longer takes a `status` parameter, refer to the return code for success/failure.
-- `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::getRemoteService` now returns a `const NimBLERemoteService*` instead of non-const.

-- `NimBLEService::getCharacteristics` now returns a `const std::vector<NimBLECharacteristic*>&` instead of std::vector<NimBLECharacteristic *>.
-- `NimBLEUUID::getNative` method replaced with `NimBLEUUID::getBase` which returns a read-only pointer to the underlying `ble_uuid_t` struct.
-- `NimBLEUUID`; `msbFirst` parameter has been removed from constructor, caller should reverse the data first or call the new `reverseByteOrder` method after.
-- `NimBLEAddress` constructor; default value for the `type` parameter removed, caller should know the address type and specify it.
-- `NimBLEAddress::getNative` replaced with `NimBLEAddress::getBase` and now returns a pointer to `const ble_addr_t` instead of a pointer to the address value.

-# Migrating from 1.x to 2.x
-
-Nearly all of the codebase has been updated and changed under the surface, which has greatly reduced the resource use of the library and improved it's performance. To be able to support these changes it required various API changes and additions.
-
-This guide will help you migrate your application code to use the new API.
-
-The changes listed here are only the required changes that must be made, and a short overview of options for migrating existing applications.

-## General changes
-- All functions that take a time parameter now require the time in milliseconds instead of seconds, i.e. `NimBLEScan::start(10000); // 10 seconds`
-- `NimBLESecurity` class has been removed it's functionality has been merged into the `NimBLEServer` and `NimBLEClient` classes.
-- All connection oriented callbacks now receive a reference to `NimBLEConnInfo` and the `ble_gap_conn_desc` parameter has been replaced with `NimBLEConnInfo` in the functions that received it.  
-    For instance `onAuthenticationComplete(ble_gap_conn_desc* desc)` signature is now `onAuthenticationComplete(NimBLEConnInfo& connInfo)` and  
-    `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onConnect(NimBLEServer* pServer)` signature is now `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onConnect(NimBLEServer* pServer, NimBLEConnInfo& connInfo)`.  
-<br/>
-
-## BLE Device
-- Ignore list functions and vector have been removed, the application should implement this if desired. It was no longer used by the library.
-- `NimBLEDevice::startSecurity` now returns a `bool`, true on success, instead of an int to be consistent with the rest of the library.
-- `NimBLEDevice::getInitialized` renamed to `NimBLEDevice::isInitialized`.
-- `NimBLEDevice::setPower` no longer takes the `esp_power_level_t` and `esp_ble_power_type_t`, instead only an integer value in dbm units is accepted, so instead of `ESP_PWR_LVL_P9` an `int8_t` value of `9` would be used for the same result.
-- `NimBLEDevice::setOwnAddrType` no longer takes a `bool nrpa` parameter, the random address type will be determined by the bits the in the address instead.  
-    Note: If setting a custom address, it should be set with `NimBLEDevice::setOwnAddr` first before calling  `NimBLEDevice::setOwnAddrType`.
-- `NimBLEDevice::getClientListSize` replaced with `NimBLEDevice::getCreatedClientCount`.
-- `NimBLEDevice::getClientList` was removed and `NimBLEDevice::getConnectedClients` can be used instead which returns a `std::vector` of pointers to the connected client instances. This was done because internally the clients are managed in a `std::array` which replaced the 'std::list`.  
-- `NimBLEDevice::getClientByID(uint16_t conn_id);` has been changed to `NimBLEDevice::getClientByHandle(uint16_t connHandle)`
-<br/>
-
-## BLE Addresses
-NimBLEAddress comparisons have changed to now consider the address type. If 2 address values are the same but the type is different then they are no longer considered equal. This is a correction to the 1.x version which did not consider the type, whereas the BLE specification states:
-> Whenever two device addresses are compared, the comparison shall include the device address type (i.e. if the two addresses have different types, they are different even if the two 48-bit addresses are the same).
-
-This means that if in your application you create a NimBLEAddress instance and are comparing a scan result or some other address created by the library and you did not define the address type then the comparison may fail.
-The default address type is public `0`, whereas many devices use a random `1` address type.
-If you experience this issue please create your address instances with the address type specified, i.e. `NimBLEAddress address("11:22:33:44:55:66", TYPE_HERE)`
-
-`NimBLEAddress::getNative` has been removed and replaced with `NimBLEAddress::getBase`.
-This returns a pointer to `const ble_addr_t` instead of a pointer to the address value that `getNative` did. The value can be accessed through this struct via `ble_addr_t.value` and type is in `ble_addr_t.type`.  
-<br/>
-
-## BLE UUID's
-- `NimBLEUUID::getNative` method replaced with `NimBLEUUID::getBase` which returns a read-only pointer to the underlying `ble_uuid_t` struct.
-- `NimBLEUUID`; `msbFirst` parameter has been removed from constructor, caller should reverse the data first or call the new `NimBLEUUID::reverseByteOrder` method after.  
-<br/>
-
-## Server
-- `NimBLEServer::disconnect` now returns `bool`, true = success,  instead of `int` to be consistent with the rest of the library.
-- `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onMTUChanged` renamed to `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onMTUChange` to be consistent with the client callback.
-- `NimBLEServer::getPeerIDInfo` renamed to `NimBLEServer::getPeerInfoByHandle` to better describe it's use.
-- Advertising is no longer automatically restarted when a peer disconnects, to re-enable this feature either call `NimBLEServer::advertiseOnDisconnect(true);` after creating the server or manually restart advertising in the `onDisconnect` callback.  
-<br/>
-
-### Services
-- `NimBLEService::getCharacteristics` now returns a `const std::vector<NimBLECharacteristic*>&` instead of a copy of the vector.  
-<br/>
-
-### Characteristics
-- `NimBLECharacteristic::notify` no longer takes a `bool is_notification` parameter, instead `NimBLECharacteristic::indicate` should be called to send indications.  
-<br/>
-
-#### Characteristic callbacks
-- `NimBLECharacteristicCallbacks::onNotify` removed as unnecessary, the library does not call notify without app input.
-- `NimBLECharacteristicCallbacks::onStatus` No longer takes a `status` parameter, refer to the return code parameter for success/failure.  
-<br/>
-
-### Server Security
-- `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onPassKeyRequest` has been renamed to `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onPassKeyDisplay` as it is intended that the device should display the passkey for the client to enter.
-- `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onAuthenticationComplete` now takes a `NimBLEConnInfo&` parameter.  
-<br/>
-
-## Client
-- `NimBLEClient::getServices` now returns a const reference to std::vector<NimBLERemoteService*> instead of a pointer to the internal vector.
-- `NimBLEClient::getConnId` has been renamed to `getConnHandle` to be consistent with bluetooth terminology.
-- `NimBLEClient::disconnect` now returns a `bool`, true on success, instead of an `int` to be consistent with the rest of the library.  
-<br/>
-
-### Client callbacks
-- `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onConfirmPIN` renamed to `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onConfirmPasskey`,  takes a `NimBLEConnInfo&` parameter and no longer returns a value. This should be used to prompt a user to confirm the pin on the display (YES/NO) after which the response should be sent with `NimBLEDevice::injectConfirmPasskey`.
-- `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onPassKeyRequest` has been changed to `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onPassKeyEntry` which takes a `NimBLEConnInfo&` parameter and no longer returns a value. Instead of returning a value this callback should prompt a user to enter a passkey number which is sent later via `NimBLEDevice::injectPassKey`.  
-<br/>
-
-### Remote Services
-- `NimBLERemoteService::getCharacteristics` now returns a `const std::vector<NimBLERemoteCharacteristic*>&` instead of non-const `std::vector<NimBLERemoteCharacteristic*>*`.  
-<br/>
-
-### Remote Characteristics
-- `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::getRemoteService` now returns a `const NimBLERemoteService*` instead of non-const.
-- `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::registerForNotify`, has been removed, the application should use `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::subscribe` and `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::unSubscribe`.
-
-        `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::readUInt32`
-        `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::readUInt16`
-        `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::readUInt8`
-        `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::readFloat`
-
-Have been removed, instead the application should use `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::readValue<type\>`.  
-<br/>
-
-## Scan
-- `NimBLEScan::stop` will no longer call the `onScanEnd` callback as the caller should know it has been stopped either by initiating a connection or calling this function itself.
-- `NimBLEScan::clearDuplicateCache` has been removed as it was problematic and only for the original esp32. The application should stop and start the scanner for the same effect or call `NimBLEScan::start` with the new `bool restart` parameter set to true.
-- `NimBLEScanResults::getDevice` methods now return `const NimBLEAdvertisedDevice*` instead of a non-const pointer.
-- `NimBLEScanResults` iterators are now `const_iterator`.
-- The callback parameter for `NimBLEScan::start` has been removed and the blocking overload of `NimBLEScan::start` has been replaced by an overload of `NimBLEScan::getResults` with the same parameters.
-
-    So if your code prior was this:
-
-        NimBLEScanResults results = pScan->start(10, false);
-
-    It should now be:
-
-        NimBLEScanResults results = pScan->getResults(10000, false); // note the time is now in milliseconds
-
-- `NimBLEAdvertisedDeviceCallbacks` Has been replaced by `NimBLEScanCallbacks` which contains the following methods:
-- - `NimBLEScanCallbacks::onResult`, functions the same as the old `NimBLEAdvertisedDeviceCallbacks::onResult` but now takes aa `const NimBLEAdvertisedDevice*` instead of non-const.
-- - `NimBLEScanCallbacks::onScanEnd`, replaces the scanEnded callback passed to `NimBLEScan::start` and now takes a `const NimBLEScanResults&` and `int reason` parameter.
-- - `NimBLEScanCallbacks::onDiscovered`, This is called immediately when a device is first scanned, before any scan response data is available and takes a `const NimBLEAdvertisedDevice*` parameter.  
-- `NimBLEScan::setAdvertisedDeviceCallbacks(NimBLEAdvertisedDeviceCallbacks* callbacks, bool wantDuplicates)` has been changed to `NimBLEScan::setScanCallbacks(NimBLEScanCallbacks* callbacks, bool wantDuplicates);`
-<br/>
-
-### Advertised Device
-- `NimBLEAdvertisedDevice::hasRSSI` removed as redundant, RSSI is always available.
-- `NimBLEAdvertisedDevice::getPayload` now returns `const std::vector<uint8_t>&` instead of a pointer to internal memory.
-- `NimBLEAdvertisedDevice` Timestamp removed, if needed then the app should track the time from the callback.  
-<br/>
-
-## Advertising
-- `NimBLEAdvertising::setMinPreferred` and `NimBLEAdvertising::setMaxPreferred` have been removed and replaced by `NimBLEAdvertising::setPreferredParams` which takes both the min and max parameters.
-- Advertising the name and TX power of the device will no longer happen by default and should be set manually by the application using `NimBLEAdvertising::setName` and `NimBLEAdvertising::addTxPower`.
-- `NimBLEAdvertising::setAdvertisementType` has been renamed to `NimBLEAdvertising::setConnectableMode` to better reflect it's function.
-- `NimBLEAdvertising::setScanResponse` has been renamed to `NimBLEAdvertising::enableScanResponse` to better reflect it's function.
-- `NimBLEAdvertising`; Scan response is no longer enabled by default.
-- `NimBLEAdvertising::start` No longer takes a callback pointer parameter, instead the new method `NimBLEAdvertising::setAdvertisingCompleteCallback` should be used to set the callback function.  
-<br/>
-
-## Beacons
-- Removed Eddystone URL as it has been shutdown by google since 2021.
-- `NimBLEEddystoneTLM::setTemp` now takes an `int16_t` parameter instead of float to be friendly to devices without floating point support.
-- `NimBLEEddystoneTLM::getTemp` now returns `int16_t` to work with devices that don't have floating point support.
-- `NimBLEEddystoneTLM::setData` now takes a reference to * `NimBLEEddystoneTLM::BeaconData` instead of `std::string`.
-- `NimBLEEddystoneTLM::getData` now returns a reference to * `NimBLEEddystoneTLM::BeaconData` instead of `std::string`.
-- `NimBLEBeacon::setData` now takes `const NimBLEBeacon::BeaconData&` instead of `std::string`.
-- `NimBLEBeacon::getData` now returns `const NimBLEBeacon::BeaconData&` instead of `std::string`.  
-<br/>
-
-## Utilities
-- `NimBLEUtils::dumpGapEvent` function removed.
-- `NimBLEUtils::buildHexData` replaced with `NimBLEUtils::dataToHexString`, which returns a `std::string` containing the hex string.

 ## Enabling extended advertising
-Extended advertising is supported when enabled with the config option `CONFIG_BT_NIMBLE_EXT_ADV` set to a value of 1. This is done in menuconfig under `Component config > Bluetooth > NimBLE options > Enable extended advertising`, or set in `nimconfig.h` for Arduino, or in `build_flags` in PlatformIO.

+# Improvements and updates
+
+Many improvements have been made to this library vs the original, this is a brief overview of the most significant changes.

+
+`NimBLECharacteristic::setValue(const T &s)`  
+`NimBLEDescriptor::setValue(const T &s)`  
+
+Now use a template to accomodate standard and custom types/values.  
+
+**Example**
+```
+struct my_struct{
+    uint8_t  one;
+    uint16_t two;
+    uint32_t four;
+    uint64_t eight;
+    float    flt;
+}myStruct;
+        
+    myStruct.one = 1;
+    myStruct.two = 2;
+    myStruct.four = 4;
+    myStruct.eight = 8;
+    myStruct.flt = 1234.56;
+
+    pCharacteristic->setValue(myStruct);
+ ```
+This will send the struct to the recieving client when read or a notification sent.  
+
+`NimBLECharacteristic::getValue` now takes an optional timestamp parameter which will update it's value with  
+the time the last value was recieved. In addition an overloaded template has been added to retrieve the value  
+as a type specified by the user.  
+
+**Example**
+```
+    time_t timestamp;
+    myStruct = pCharacteristic->getValue<myStruct>(&timestamp); // timestamp optional
+```
+<br/>
+
+**Advertising will automatically start when a client disconnects.**  
+
+A new method `NimBLEServer::advertiseOnDisconnect(bool)` has been implemented to control this, true(default) = enabled.  
+<br/>
+
+`NimBLEServer::removeService` takes an additional parameter `bool deleteSvc` that if true will delete the service  
+and all characteristics / descriptors belonging to it and invalidating any pointers to them.  
+
+If false the service is only removed from visibility by clients. The pointers to the service and  
+it's characteristics / descriptors will remain valid and the service can be re-added in the future  
+using `NimBLEServer::addService`.  
+<br/>
+
+<a name="advertising"></a>
+# Advertising
+`NimBLEAdvertising::start`
+
+Now takes 2 optional parameters, the first is the duration to advertise for (in seconds), the second is a callback  
+that is invoked when advertsing ends and takes a pointer to a `NimBLEAdvertising` object (similar to the `NimBLEScan::start` API).  
+
+This provides an opportunity to update the advertisment data if desired.  
+
+Also now returns a bool value to indicate if advertising successfully started or not.
+<br/>  
+
+<a name="client"></a>
+# Client  
+
+`NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::readValue(time_t\*, bool)`   
+`NimBLERemoteDescriptor::readValue(bool)`  
+
+Have been added as templates to allow reading the values as any specified type.   
+
+**Example**
+```
+struct my_struct{
+    uint8_t  one;
+    uint16_t two;
+    uint32_t four;
+    uint64_t eight;
+    float    flt;
+}myStruct;
+
+    time_t timestamp;
+    myStruct = pRemoteCharacteristic->readValue<myStruct>(&timestamp); // timestamp optional
+```  
+<br/>
+
+`NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::registerForNotify`  
+Has been **deprecated** as now the internally stored characteristic value is updated when notification/indication is recieved.  
+
+`NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::subscribe` and `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::unsubscribe` have been implemented to replace it.  
+A callback is no longer requred to get the most recent value unless timing is important. Instead, the application can call `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::getValue` to  
+get the last updated value any time.  
+<br/>  
+
+The `notifiy_callback` function is now defined as a `std::function` to take advantage of using `std::bind` to specifiy a class member function for the callback.  
+
+Example:  
+```
+using namespace std::placeholders;
+notify_callback callback = std::bind(&<ClassName>::<memberFunctionCallbackName>, this, _1, _2, _3, _4);
+<remoteCharacteristicInstance>->subscribe(true, callback);
+```
+
+`NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::readValue` and `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::getValue` take an optional timestamp parameter which will update it's value with  
+the time the last value was recieved.  
+
+> NimBLEClient::getService  
+> NimBLERemoteService::getCharacteristic  
+> NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::getDescriptor  
+
+These methods will now check the respective vectors for the attribute object and, if not found, will retrieve (only)  
+the specified attribute from the peripheral.  
+
+These changes allow more control for the user to manage the resources used for the attributes.    
+<br/>
+
+`NimBLEClient::connect()` can now be called without an address or advertised device parameter. This will connect to the  
+device with the address previously set when last connected or set with `NimBLEDevice::setPeerAddress()`. 
+
+<a name="general"></a>
+# General  
+To reduce resource use all instances of `std::map` have been replaced with `std::vector`.  
+
+Use of `FreeRTOS::Semaphore` has been removed as it was consuming too much ram, the related files have been left in place to accomodate application use.  
+
+Operators `==`, `!=` and `std::string` have been added to `NimBLEAddress` and `NimBLEUUID` for easier comparison and logging.  
+
+New constructor for `NimBLEUUID(uint32_t, uint16_t, uint16_t, uint64_t)` added to lower memory use vs string construction. See: [#21](https://github.com/h2zero/NimBLE-Arduino/pull/21).   
+
+Security/pairing operations are now handled in the respective `NimBLEClientCallbacks` and `NimBLEServerCallbacks` classes, `NimBLESecurity`(deprecated) remains for backward compatibility.  
+
+Configuration options have been added to add or remove debugging information, when disabled (default) significatly reduces binary size.  
+In ESP-IDF the options are in menuconfig: `Main menu -> ESP-NimBLE-cpp configuration`.  
+For Arduino the options must be commented / uncommented in nimconfig.h.

-#### Descriptor callbacks
-
-> `BLEDescriptorCallbacks::onRead` (`NimBLEDescriptorCallbacks::onRead`)
- `BLEDescriptorCallbacks::onWrite` (`NimBLEDescriptorCallbacks::onWrite`)
-
-The above descriptor callbacks take an additional (required) parameter `NimBLEConnInfo& connInfo`, which contains the connection information of the peer.
+For the 0x2904, there is a special class that is created when you call `createDescriptor("2904").
+
+The pointer returned is of the base class `NimBLEDescriptor` but the call will create the derived class of `NimBLE2904` so you must cast the returned pointer to  
+`NimBLE2904` to access the specific class methods.

 ### Server Security
 Security is set on the characteristic or descriptor properties by applying one of the following:
 > NIMBLE_PROPERTY::READ_ENC  
-NIMBLE_PROPERTY::READ_AUTHEN  
-NIMBLE_PROPERTY::READ_AUTHOR  
-NIMBLE_PROPERTY::WRITE_ENC  
-NIMBLE_PROPERTY::WRITE_AUTHEN  
-NIMBLE_PROPERTY::WRITE_AUTHOR  
-
-<br/>
-
-When a peer wants to read or write a characteristic or descriptor with any of these properties applied it will trigger the pairing process. By default the "just-works" pairing will be performed automatically.
+> NIMBLE_PROPERTY::READ_AUTHEN  
+> NIMBLE_PROPERTY::READ_AUTHOR  
+> NIMBLE_PROPERTY::WRITE_ENC  
+> NIMBLE_PROPERTY::WRITE_AUTHEN

+When a peer wants to read or write a characteristic or descriptor with any of these properties applied    
+it will trigger the pairing process. By default the "just-works" pairing will be performed automatically.   
 This can be changed to use passkey authentication or numeric comparison. See [Security API](#security-api) for details.

+   Create a BLE server that, once we receive a connection, will send periodic notifications.

+   3. Create a BLE Characteristic on the Service
+   4. Create a BLE Descriptor on the characteristic
+   5. Start the service.
