Currently, the Bootloader does not appear to support Encryption (specifically AES-128 with the NRG family).
This causes a problem when the user is using encryption in the User Application, but would like to use SwapDMT-cmd for OTA firmware update.
The software will need to be updated with one of the following fixes:
The SwapDMT application should switch to unencrypted mode when uploading firmware
This might be the easiest approach, should be fixable only in the Python tools
However then the firmware will be transmitted unencrypted
Add encryption support in the Bootloader, and store the AES key somewhere accessible from both, such as an nvram buffer
This would not be backwards compatible with previous versions of the bootloader
This would be more secure
We have developed a workaround right now by merging the encryption code from the Application's SWAP into the bootloader and recompiling, but it does not seem to be general enough to share here.
I am filing this issue here, because it may affect a few different repos (SWAP lib, Python Tools, etc).
