What function should I call to get the "Device ID" from an end node when using an XBee module as coordinator? #25

This is not an issue but there is no "questions" or "support" section.

I have an application where I have an XBee module acting as coordinator and I'm using this library with it. The problem is that I need to be able to identify the devices connected to it and I need to do that by getting their Device ID's. I haven't been able to identify a function to call from this library that would help me get the Device IDs of the end devices and routers connected to my coordinator.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks!

Take a look at the transparent_client sample. It demonstrates use of src/xbee/xbee_discovery.c via code in samples/common/_nodetable.c to discover devices on the network. You can link _nodetable.c directly into your program to make use of its APIs, or use it as a starting point for your own node table management. The node table holds the 64-bit IEEE address, 16-bit network address, and the remote devices ATNI value.
