Android Client Required input Passkey Before connect with ESP32/pairing with EPS32

[amin-is]

Below Sketch working fine for android client to ESP32 server. Here when connect with eps32 then no required any passkey. After connected when i send write request then require passkey for pairing first time. I want passkey required method before connected with esp32. How can i do this please give me instruction.
