Setting Link Level Security Mode
We have a requirement to set Link Level Security mode 1. How can this be done with the bluez stack?
The mgmt-api allows the following bit-mapped modes to be configured:
1 Powered
2 Connectable
3 Fast Connectable
4 Discoverable
5 Pairable
6 Link Level Security (Sec. mode 3)
7 Secure Simple Pairing
8 Basic Rate/Enhanced Data Rate
9 High Speed
10 Low Energy
Note that although you can set Link Level Security mode 3 on or off, there is no general way to set the link level security mode, which according to Huang's "Bluetooth Essentials for Programmer" (p.31) consists of three different modes (mode 1, mode 2, and mode 3).

Hi Randy,
As far I can understand you security mode is has been removed from specification since Bluetooth 2.1, it is mandatory to encrypt link before service level connection.
