Leaving a Network
There are a couple of mechanisms that will cause the router to leave its current PAN and attempt
to discover and join a new network based on its network joining parameter values.
These include the following:
Change the ID command such that the current 64-bit PAN ID is invalid.
Change the SC command such that the current channel (CH) is not included in the channel
mask.
Change the ZS or any of the security command values.
Issue the NR0 command to cause the router to leave.
Issue the NR1 command to send a broadcast transmission, causing all devices in the network
to leave and migrate to a different channel.
