Abstract
Example embodiments relate to rotating coordinators in mesh networks. One example mesh network includes multiple communication devices adapted to communicate in the mesh network according to a predetermined protocol. A single one of the multiple communication devices adopts a coordinator role in the mesh network for governing a commissioning procedure in the mesh network. The mesh network is configured to rotate the coordinator role among at least a selected number of the multiple communication devices so that a new communication device is detectable in the vicinity of the device adopting the coordinator role.
