&lt;p&gt;so can i change their role?&lt;/p&gt;[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;Usually Thread networks automatically assign nodes as routers and leaders.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XY_problem"&gt;Why&lt;/a&gt; do you want to change their roles?&lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]and i have also try to make matter switch example in ev-bt840 board and i bind both device than if i try to remove OTBR than it not communicate directly so what will be an issue, does that mean i need OTBR compulsorily[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;For Matter over Thread, you must have an OTBR, yes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I recommend having a look at out &lt;a href="https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/protocols/matter/index.html"&gt;Matter documentation&lt;/a&gt; to learn more about Matter.&lt;/p&gt;
