Commissioner isn't active

[Kostiantyn Makhno]

Hi there, 

I've already asked about it https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/49701/commissioner-disable and I've tried it but nothing work. I've already spent 5 days but cannot solve it.

When the device is Leader I start commissioner role on it. There is a chunk of my code. 

I received the next result when start commissioner

As you see Commissioner is in Petitioning state.

But when I scan the networks I received the next result 

As you can see the network isn't joinable.  

How do I can do Commissioner active and how to do network is joinable?

I saw some open thread core code and I have the next the question:

in the code above as I understood(and how was describe in open thread spec) when we start commissioner it sends petitioning request to Leader

or is it wrong? so, I have question leader can be commissioner? and then how it sends petitioning request or in this case, it simply becomes a commissioner and already has the information of the network immediately (since it is available only to the leader)?

Hi,

It is correct that the border agent will send a request to the Thread Leader to petition its Commissioner Candidate to be the one elected Commissioner.

I'm not sure exactly what happens when the leader request to become commissioner itself, but my best guess would be that it would just work. Which parameter do you print in the "Joinable" part of your log output?

Can you also provide a sniffer trace of the on-air traffic in the network? You can produce that using the nRF-Sniffer-for-802.15.4.

Best regards,
Jørgen
