CC1352P: Beacon Req - Destination PAN

Hey Bill,

I don't see why this won't work the way you described. When the FFDs receive beacons notifications, it checks to see if the PAN ID is 0xFFFF, if so the device can join any network, and associates with the first coordinator from which the beacon is received. Otherwise, it checks to see a match on that specific coordinator's panID, which is what you're looking for. (See jdllc.c snippet below)

/* Check for beacon order match */
if(checkBeaconOrder(pData->panDesc.superframeSpec) == true)
{
  if(devInfoBlock.panID == JDLLC_INVALID_PAN)
  {
    /* Device can join any network , associate with
     * first coordinator from which beacon is received */
    devInfoBlock.panID = pData->panDesc.coordPanId;
    panIdMatch = true;
  }
  /* Check the incoming PAN ID to see if it's a valid coordinator */
  else if (devInfoBlock.panID == pData->panDesc.coordPanId)
  {
    panIdMatch = true;
  }
//...

Try setting a specific panID on both your FFDs and the coordinator (or router in this case) device and verify with the sniffer!
