I am developing a BLE Peripheral device. This device can be bonded with 2 different centrals. Say, for instance, I bond with a tablet as one device and a PC as the other. When I power down the device, and pull it back up, if I read the stored bond infor, what would be a good way to flag one bond as the tablet, and one as the PC? What are some stored bond data types that are unique enough I can compare to a "Device Type" struct saved to flash in order to flag the bonded device as a Tablet or a PC?

Hello David,
Every Bonded device will be assigned a unique bdHandle.
For Example: When first time your Peripheral device Connects and Bonds to the Tablet, The Tablet will be assigned a bdHandle (cyBle_connHandle.bdHandle=4 ) equal to 4 . Now when you Connects and Bonds to the PC , then the PC will be assigned a bdHandle=3.
Now, When next time you connects to a tablet ,as soon as you connect , You can check the 'bdHandle' if the bdHandle is 4 which means your connected device is tablet.

Wouldn't you just save metadata such as you describe with the bond information when you save it to flash?
Otherwise, bond data in-and-of-itself is too generic to use as a logic comparison imo.
