which ID's are reqired to form network ??? & what is functioning of that ID's ?

what is device ID? should we give it different to each device or we should give it different to different types of device like blind node, reference node , etc ??

is there any ID which is different to each device in network? should that ID be given by the programmer?

    By "ID", I assume that you mean "PAN ID". The PAN ID functionality is as follows:

    If PAN_ID = 0xFFFF and device = Coordinator: Device uses IEEE address to choose a PAN_ID (last 2 bytes)
    If PAN_ID = 0xFFFF and device = Router or End Device: Device will join any available PAN
    If PAN_ID ≠ 0xFFFF and device = Coordinator: Device will use the set value for the PAN_ID
    If PAN_ID ≠ 0xFFFF and device = Router or End Device: Device will ONLY join a PAN that has this PAN_ID

    Can u list what kind of ID's i ll require to form complete network which will include coordinator, reference node, blind node.

    Can u specify their functions also?

    & is there any more ID which programmer should give spearate to each device in that network.

    Are we talking about Profile ID's or something else?

    1. IEEE address
    2. Network short address
    3. end point address
    4. Device ID
    5. Profile ID 

    what is function of above ID's ?? & which ID's should be given by programmer ??

    & How should they be i.e. as PAN ID is only a single ID to any device from that network irrespective of device type.
