Openthread CoAP - communication initiated by server?

[marmio]

Hi,

I'm developing multiprotocol applications based on examples from Thread SDK: Proximity/CoAP server and BLE UART/CoAP client. All CoAP communication in this examples is initiated from client by sending requests, but I'd like to have a possibility to initiate it also from the server. I tried to make a resource on the client but it didn't really work. What is the best way to accomplish this?

Thanks in advance.

You can't really do that, as the server/client architecture of CoAP is based on request/response operations. If you setup CoAP resources on the client, you are basically making it a SoAP server. What is the problem you are facing when trying to do this?
