Nrf52840 cli

[sivaguru]

• What are the set of commands to send data from node (router or end device )  to leader through router,(not directly connected);                                                  in openthead cli mesh build example in https://openthread.io/ ,it is given procedure to send data only to visible nearby connected devices (link local)
• In that example both link link local and mesh local are same since all three devices are visible to each other, thought they have used mesh local address

I just followed tutorial https://youtu.be/ZwOobg2GLGo where they haven't even set pan id to join the mesh

Another doubt, does usb cli example work for uart command (i.e does uart instances are enabled in usb example)

 The usb cli example uses the USB peripheral (the USB port on the long side of the DK). The UART cli example uses the USB cable on the short end (UART over USB).

 I am not familiar with that guide. Perhaps you want to check out the testing instructions for the CLI example:

In this mode there cannot be a router , u should have included another way of commissioning in your document ,which is been provided in  https://openthread.io/, due to covid I can't experiment and verify the method of commissioning process , due to which I rise the doubts

 What do you mean?

 I understand that it can be difficult without the proper HW, but it is (unfortunately) a big challenge to do embedded development without being able to test. 

Perhaps you can elaborate a bit, and we can find some way that may work for you.

Step 6 : Wait until LED1 stops blinking, which indicates that both devices are connected to the network, either as a Child or as a Leader

Router mode ???

So, are you only using the two DKs for your test now? Are they using the same THREAD_CHANNEL (defined in sdk_config.h)? Alternatively, you can override it by using the command "channel <nr>", e.g.: "channel 12" on both devices.

What project file did you use? SDK\examples\thread\cli\ ?

Try to use

SDK\examples\thread\cli\ftd\uart\pca10056\blank\<your IDE>.

Then flash the same file to both DKs. You are using two nRF52840 DKs, right?

1. I need to integrate 30 nodes , channel number can be a default value,
