Not able to Perform Operation when Gateway Power ON After Sometime(7-8 Minute)

Not able to Perform Operation after Gateway Power ON After Sometime

We observed that after creating the Thread network successfully if we power down the NXP Modular gateway(HOST) for around 7-8 minutes then again power on the NXP Modular gateway it has been observed that not able to perform any operation through NXP Modular gateway(HOST). It seems like before power down NXP Modular gateway is Leader but after the power on, one of the REED devices become a leader. 

Below are the different steps for more details. (Attached steps as well for reference)

Set-up

1. NXP Modular gateway (HOST)

2. REED  (Total Number of Devices = 3)
