FuzzBox Thread MAC Test Suite Data Sheet

Test Suite: FuzzBox Thread MAC Test Suite

Direction: Server

Thread protocol is a low-power mesh network running on top of 802.15.4 MAC layer and IPv6. Thread is designed for Internet of Things. Thread is also used as one of the transport layer for Matter. The FuzzBox Thread MAC Test Suite is a Defensics test suite designed for testing IEEE 802.15.4 medium access control (MAC) layer of the Thread protocol stack.
