Abstract
Example implementations relate to partitioning a radio into chains to scan channels. In some examples, a network device may comprise a processing resource and a memory resource storing machine-readable instructions to partition a default radio of the network device into a service chain and a scan chain in response to a scan request, scan a particular channel with the scan chain to discover devices operating on the particular channel of a network, and combine the service chain and the scan chain into the default radio.
