ot-ctl command not found

[UmaMaheswar]

Hi all, 

I'm using Raspberry Pi with Nordic dongle and flashed the Nordic Alpha 4.1.0.1 image to make it as BorderRouter in NCP design.

I have EFR32device and have flashed the ot-cli-ftd to device and can see EUI64 from the end device.

Inorder to commission the device to the network, I need to commission from Raspberry using ot-ctl commissioner commands, but when I'm trying that command showing as ot-ctl : Command not found  tried with Commissioning App and it didn't work.  can see the path for more information EFR32-commissioning

Need help on commissioning the device into network.

Hi,

ot-ctl is a command-line utility provided with OTBR, this is not the same as the Raspberry Pi Thread border router image we provide. 

For commissioning with our border router solution you can follow the instructions in Configuring with the wpantund.

Best regards,
Jørgen

For Configuring Wpantund I may need one more nrf dongle other than that I have connected to Raspberry Pi in NCP.

Can't I use the same dongle to flash such CLI example binary and get the Masterkey and pskc information from CLI for Commissioning.

If there's some other way from where I can get the masterkey and stuff would be pleased to know.

Thank you

Wpantund talks directly with the NCP through Spinel protocol, there is no need for additional dongles or CLI examples.

If you have already extracted the EUI64 from the EFR32 device, you can follow steps 2-3 in Performing on-mesh commissioning to start commissioner and add the joining device EUI64 in the border router. Then you need to start the joiner in EFR32 with the same pre-shared key to obtain network credentials to join the network.

Thanks for the support and be able to execute 2 & 3 step successfully.

On executing step 4 getting output as join failed

At step 3 I have used EUI64 from EFR32 and time out 100 and Pskd : J01NME

What might be the issue?

[Jørgen Holmefjord]

Did you start the joiner on the EFR32 with Pskd="J01NME"?

The commands on the EFR32 should be similar to step 4.2 in your linked guide, if you are running the ot-cli-ftd from OpenThread.
