Setting up light example to commission with Thread AND Wifi (CON-629) #517

Closed blank-white-user closed 1 year ago

blank-white-user commented 1 year ago

Would there be any way to set up the configs to allow a device, i.e. light example on ESP32C6, to commission via thread unless the hub didn't support Thread, causing it to be commissioned via wifi instead? How would this be done? I have tried combining the configurations from the C6 and the C3 with regards to the networking settings but it still will only commission via thread. Thank you.

@switchless-team It is technically feasible and is already supported on EP32-C6. See the commit in the upstream connectedhomeip and the documentation here.

Edit: Or you can directly test the esp-matter light example by setting esp32c6 as the target.

Currently, the Matter specification does not define the support of multiple interfaces clearly. As a result, the phone apps do not support it. You can test the example using chip-tool, by using ble-wifi and ble-thread pairing.

If you want, you can check the specification issue where this is being discussed: https://github.com/CHIP-Specifications/connectedhomeip-spec/issues/4608
