Description

Hi,

Lorawan 1.1 says that the DevNonce should be incremented with each join. Looking at the Mbed stack I don't see that the nonce is stored on something non-volatile. Also the API does not allow me to set the nonce.

Research direction

Start by tracing where DevNonce is generated and where join state is stored in the Mbed LoRaWAN stack. Check the LoRaWAN 1.1 requirement against the current API and storage behavior; done means the nonce is incremented for each join, survives restart through non-volatile storage, and can be configured through the API.
