Hi Charlie,

thanks for the quick answer to my question.

I will think about going into the direction of Thread. I will take a closer look on the Thread examples.

Best regards and thanks a lot

Michael

Hi Michael,

I believe it is possible to implement a multiprotocol solution with BLE and 6LowPAN, but we did not continue in this direction at that time. You may find that 6LowPan examples were just experimental tryings, but never have production-level release. This was because Thread protocol appeared. It uses 6LoWPAN and provides more features, so you can find further developments including multiprotocol solutions that are all based on Thread instead of bare 6LowPAN. Thread multiprotocol examples can be found at https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sdk_tz_v4.1.0/thread_multi_examples_dynamic.html.

Best regards,

Charlie
