Hi,

I will check internally if there is any plans to release the source code, or if it would be possible to make the scanning/topology build procedure available in this post.

The software use a Thread CLI node to talk to the network, through a UART interface. You can use the following commands to scan/list devices and build your network:

• scan
• child list/table
• router list/table
• neighbor list/table
• leaderdata

Might be some more useful commands, please read the whole list to see what you find useful!

Best regards,
Jørgen

There is currently no plans to release the source code of Thread Topoloy Monitor.

This is the commands used for scanning:

From CLI point of view, those commands are called inside:

Configuration:

• panid 0xXXXX
• channel XX
• masterkey XX
• ifconfig up
• thread start
• state  // check if we are router or leader
• state router // if not

 

Polling (called with specified interval):
router list  // get RLOC16 of all routers in the network

For each Router:
    networkdiagnostic get ROUTER_RLOC 0 1 5 6 16  // Those numbers indicate that we want to obtain e.g. child table, router table etc.
