Message Integrity Code (MIC)

End Devices (Nodes)
1

Hi! i have a few question about the OTAA activation:

  1. I kwon that the join request is a package or message that contains AppEUI, DevEUI and DevNonce, ¿at this point this join request are encrypted by a hash function or something similar?
  2. The MIC would be the result of pass the join request and the AppKey by a hash function (AES 128) ?
  3. how the end nodes get the AppKey? and how the Aplicattion server get it?
  4. how many bits have the AppEUI, DevEUI, DevNonce and AppKey?
    Thanks and Sorry for my english
