I managed to set up a mesh (Thread) using 9 nodes of the nRF52840 SoCs. I am currently using Putty to send commands and pings between the nodes.

Sorry for the late reply. Yes, i intend to send a command to a Thread node and tell it to ping another node that will be in the mesh. I need to be able to do this remotely from my PC.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: 'Pinging'</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/159601?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 29 Nov 2018 15:13:46 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:491a5e5d-0d0e-4493-a3ce-4fdfd05414da</guid><dc:creator>J&amp;#248;rgen Holmefjord</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do I understand you correctly that you want to send a command to a Thread node (over the Thread network) to tell it to ping some other node in the network?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m not aware of any such functionality in the examples, but you should be able to&amp;nbsp;implement this using CoAP server examples. When writing to a CoAP resource, use the received information to perform a ping in the handler. You can send CoAP messages directly from CLI node, see&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://github.com/openthread/openthread/blob/master/src/cli/README.md#coap-start"&gt;coap&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;documentation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;Jørgen&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
