Is is possible to use the Openthread sniffer in a network formed by nRF52840 flashed in NCP ?

Hello everyone!

I want to form an Openthread network with three Nordic nRF52840 cardboards. I would like to monitor the traffic using a sniffer, but i can't receive any data.

I used the official Openthread sniffer provided on Github : https://github.com/openthread/pyspinel,

and followed the tutorial : https://openthread.io/guides/ncp/sniffer.

The sniffer is working perfectly well on a network formed by Nordic cardboards flashed in CLI, but no data seems to be monitored in a network with NCP cardboards. Does anyone know is this sniffer can be used in NPC ?

Thanks !
