Techniques for managing connections in a mesh network that includes multiple provisioners are described. In an example, a computer system receives, from a first device set up as a first provisioner in the mesh network, a first identifier of a third device of the mesh network. The computer system also receives, from a second device set up as a second provisioner in the mesh network, the first identifier of the third device. The computer system generates an association between the third device and the first device based at least in part on a determination that the third device is to be reached exclusively via the first device. The computer system also generates a message about an action to be performed by the third device and sends, based at least in part on the association, the message to the first device.

Managing connections in a mesh network having multiple provisioner devices

Techniques for managing connections in a mesh network are described. In an example, a device sends, to a plurality of devices of the mesh network, one or more messages requesting an action to be performed by a first device of the mesh network. The device determines, based at least in part on data about the mesh network, that the first device is to be reached via a second device of the mesh network. The second device being a single hop away from the device. The device establishes a peer-to-peer connection with the second device and receives, over the peer-to-peer connection, a response of the first device to the message.
