Abstract

Some aspects of this disclosure relate to implementing a thread device that can associate with a thread network. The thread device includes a network processor, a first memory, and a host processor communicatively coupled to the network processor and the first memory. The first memory can be a nonvolatile memory with a first level security protection, and configured to store a first dataset including thread network parameters for the network processor to manage network functions for the thread device associated with the thread network. The network processor can be coupled to a second memory to store a second dataset having a same content as the first dataset. The network processor is configured to manage the network functions based on the second dataset. The second memory can be a volatile memory with a second level security protection that is less than the first level security protection.
