As I known, TI doesn't provide such interface in Z-Stack. Can you elaborate what you mean to achieve?

Hi Yi Kai,

I am thinking whether I am able to transmit packets from the CC2531EMK to the existing ZigBee hub as one of the devices the hub supports, or to replay packets

Regards,

Basically, it's not easy because Zigbee use several tools such as AES encryption and frame counter to avoid hack. If you are trying to hack Zigbee protocol, I would suggest you to read Zigbee spec for security details first.

HI Yi Kai,

I understand that there are things in place for security of ZigBee.

What I was thinking of is only to transmit a set of packets from the CC2531EMK to somewhat prove the security of the protocol.

From your response, am I right to say that the CC2531EMK is not able transmit any packets at all?

Regards,

Terence

You can try to use SmartRF Studio to send raw data if you want.
