Detailed ways

The relevant content and scenarios that may be involved in the present application are exemplarily introduced below, and the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application are further described in detail in combination with the scenarios.

In the embodiments of the present application, routing devices may include but are not limited to routers, modems, wireless access points, and other devices, and electronic devices may include, but are not limited to, laptop computers, mobile phones, tablets, and smart watches. In the following description, a router is used as an example for the routing device, and a mobile phone is used as an example for the electronic device to describe the embodiments of the present application in detail.

(1) Access Point (AP) mode, which refers to a working mode that can provide wireless or wired access services, allow device access, and provide data access for devices.

(2) Station (Station, STA) mode, which refers to a working mode in which the device does not accept the access of the device, but can be connected to the device in the AP mode.

For a newly purchased or reset router, the network needs to be reconfigured before it can function as a gateway in a wired or wireless network. Usually after the router is powered on and connected to an external network, the router enters access point mode and can act as a network access point for other electronic devices.

After the router enters the access point mode, it can send out wireless broadcasts; after receiving wireless broadcasts, other electronic devices can establish a LAN communication connection with the router without entering a password, and then configure the router based on the LAN communication connection.

However, the above-mentioned router network configuration method does not require a password, so it is easy to be maliciously connected by other electronic devices other than the user's electronic device, and configure the router, etc., so that there are certain security risks in network configuration. In addition, since the routers launched by the same manufacturer all use the same Service SetIdentifier (SSID), the newly purchased routers generally use the factory default name, or the router will return to the default name after reset. Therefore, the user electronic device may search for a plurality of nearby routers with the same name, so that the user is not sure which router to connect to, so that the user may unintentionally connect to the wrong router.

In view of the above-mentioned application scenarios and possible situations, the embodiments of the present application provide a network configuration method, which can avoid malicious connection of other electronic devices other than the user's electronic device or the user is not sure which one to connect when configuring the router. Routers, possibly connected to the wrong router, improve the security of network configuration and network access.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an example of a system architecture provided by an embodiment of the present application. The embodiments of the present application may be applied to the system architecture shown in FIG. 1 . The system architecture may include electronic equipment and routing equipment. The electronic device may be a device such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a smart watch, or a notebook computer, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit the type of the electronic device. The routing device may be a router, a modem, a wireless access point, and other devices, and the type of the routing device is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

As shown in FIG. 1 , in this embodiment of the present application, the electronic device takes a mobile phone 10 as an example, and the routing device takes a router 20 as an example for description.

In the embodiment of the present application, for the reset or newly purchased router 20, before establishing a communication connection with the mobile phone 10, it is in the workstation mode, and the mobile phone 10 is in the access point mode. Based on the working modes of the two, the router 20 establishes a communication connection with the mobile phone 10 .

As shown in FIG. 1 , the interaction process between the mobile phone 10 and the router 20 may include:

101 , the router 20 receives the information broadcast by the mobile phone 10 . The broadcasted information may include protocol packets and access point information of the mobile phone 10 (the access point information may include the hotspot name of the personal hotspot of the mobile phone 10).

102 , the router 20 establishes a connection with the mobile phone 10 , and the router 20 feeds back a message to the mobile phone 10 . The feedback message may include information notifying the mobile phone that the connection is successful.

Exemplarily, when the mobile phone 10 is in the access point mode, it can periodically broadcast the protocol message and the access point information; when the router 20 is in the workstation mode, it can receive the protocol message and the access point information broadcasted by the mobile phone 10. , after recognizing that the protocol message contains a pre-set consistent target identification field, the access point information broadcast by the mobile phone 10 can be obtained, and the obtained access point information and the access point information in the protocol message can be compared. If the matching is successful (the two are the same), the router 20 establishes a communication connection with the mobile phone 10 .

The access point information broadcast by the mobile phone 10 obtained by the router 20 may be the access point information received and stored in the router 20 before the identification protocol message, or it may be when the target identification field is identified or Access point information received afterward.

Exemplarily, the communication connection may be a channel jointly determined by the router 20 and the mobile phone 10 for data transmission, for example, it may be a transmission channel based on near field communication, Bluetooth communication, wireless local area network communication or low power consumption local area network protocol communication, etc. There is no specific restriction on this.

Since the reset or newly purchased router 20 is in the workstation mode, it will not broadcast its own wireless connection information, so other electronic devices other than the user's electronic device cannot search for and connect to the router 20, thereby avoiding other electronic devices. The electronic device makes a malicious connection when configuring the network of the router 20 .

Exemplarily, after the mobile phone 10 establishes a communication connection with the router 20 , the mobile phone 10 may send the network configuration information to the router 20 . The router 20 receives the network configuration information and performs network configuration according to the network configuration information; wherein the network configuration information may include network name, network password, wireless name and wireless password, etc.; and notify the mobile phone 10 to complete the network configuration after the network configuration is completed; the router 20 Switch from the workstation mode to the access point mode; thus the mobile phone 10 can access the network through the router 20 .

Exemplarily, the predetermined manner may be a manner in which the user clicks the switch control on the personal hotspot interface of the mobile phone 10 to input. The protocol message may include a target identification field, where the target identification field is a special identification field that is consistent with the router 20 preset, such as a "connection" field. The protocol message may also include access point information, and the access point information may include the hotspot name in a special format of the personal hotspot of the mobile phone 10; the user can customize the special format of the hotspot name, such as "Xiao Ming's mobile phone"; The hotspot name may contain letters, symbols, numbers, etc., which are not specifically limited here. After the mobile phone 10 turns on the hotspot, it can also periodically broadcast the access point information including the hotspot name in a special format, where the hotspot name in the special format is the network name of the personal hotspot of the mobile phone 10 .

203, the router receives the long-press instruction, and enters the station mode of the workstation (in a passive receiving state).

204, the router parses the received protocol packet to obtain a special identification field (eg connection) and access point information.

205: Obtain the hotspot name in the special format in the access point information, and match the hotspot name with the hotspot name in the access point information in the protocol packet; if the match is consistent, the router establishes a communication connection with the mobile phone.

206, the router sends feedback information of successful connection to the mobile phone.

The router 20 may enter the station mode in another predetermined manner. Exemplarily, the other predetermined manner may be a manner in which the user inputs a long-press instruction by long-pressing a target button on the router 20 for 3 seconds, and the router 20 enters the workstation mode in response to the long-press instruction. The router 20 can receive the protocol packets broadcast by the mobile phone 10 in the workstation mode. After the router 20 receives the protocol packet, it can parse the protocol packet; if the target identification field in the parsed protocol packet is a pre-set consistent special identification field (for example, connection), it obtains the broadcast information of the mobile phone 10. Access point information (including the hotspot name in a special format), the obtained access point information may be received and stored in the router 20 before identifying the protocol message, or it may be received after identifying the target identification field Access point information broadcast by the mobile phone 10 to the destination.

It should be noted that, after the mobile phone 10 enters the access point mode, in addition to broadcasting the protocol message, it can also periodically broadcast the access point information including its own hotspot name.

Exemplarily, based on the target identification field in the protocol message, the router 20 triggers the acquisition of the access point information broadcasted by the mobile phone 10 that includes the hotspot name in a special format, and parses the hotspot name in the special format from the protocol message. The hotspot name is matched; if the two match, the router 20 establishes a communication connection with the mobile phone 10 , and the router 20 sends the mobile phone 10 feedback information that the communication connection is successful.

207. The mobile phone receives the network configuration information input by the user.

208, the mobile phone sends the network configuration information to the router.

Exemplarily, Figure 6-1 (a) shows that when the mobile phone is unlocked, the screen display system of the mobile phone displays currently output interface content 601, which is the main interface of the mobile phone. The interface content 601 displays various applications, such as gallery, settings, music, and network management. It should be understood that the interface content 601 may also include other more application programs, which is not limited in this application.

As shown in (a) of FIG. 6-1, on the main interface 601 of the mobile phone 10, the user clicks the network management APP, and in response to the click operation for the mobile phone 10, the mobile phone 10 enters the network management interface. The interface 602 shown in (b) of FIG. 6-1, on the interface 602, may include different functional areas and menus, etc. For example, the menu area may include the main menu categories of the network management application: network configuration, Routing settings, network status, device management and security settings, etc., the user can click on the different main menus to display different contents, and the user can perform different operations or view different contents through each menu option. The function of the area will not be repeated here. In addition, on the network management interface, it is also possible to display whether the current user is in a logged-in state or not in a logged-in state, and in the user's logged-in state, user avatars, user names, etc. can also be displayed.

In the operation shown in (b) of Fig. 6-1, the user clicks the "Network Configuration" menu in the function menu area, and in response to the user's click operation, an interface 603 is displayed. The interface 603 includes a personal hotspot area 603-1 at the top of the screen and a network distribution guide area 603-2 at the bottom of the screen, which are divided by the dotted line in the figure.

Exemplarily, the personal hotspot area 603-1 includes a hotspot switch, network name and password; for example, the network name "AAA" is the hotspot name or device name of the mobile phone 10, and the password is the password for accessing the hotspot network of the mobile phone 10. ; For the network name and password, mobile phone users can set it by themselves.

Wherein, the network name of the personal hotspot is the unique service set identifier (SSID) of the electronic device. As the identifier of the wireless local area network of the electronic device, each device can be different, or the user can change the setting.

Exemplarily, the first trigger instruction may be that the user clicks the switch control on the personal hotspot interface in the settings of the mobile phone or on the personal hotspot interface corresponding to the network configuration option of the network management APP, or clicks the personal hotspot icon in the drop-down shortcut menu of the mobile phone. The command generated by the control. As shown in (c) of Figure 6-1, on the network configuration interface of the network management APP, the user clicks the personal hotspot switch control, and the mobile phone responds to the click action to turn on the hotspot and enter the access point mode.

It should be noted that the mobile phone can respond to the triggering instruction to turn on the personal hotspot input by the user on the personal hotspot interface in the settings, or respond to the user input on the personal hotspot interface in an application (Application, APP) that can perform network configuration. The trigger instruction to open the personal hotspot can also be a response to the trigger instruction to open the personal hotspot at the personal hotspot icon in the drop-down shortcut menu of the mobile phone; the mobile phone can also enter the access point mode through other predetermined methods, which is not limited here.

In operation 1 shown in (c) of Figure 6-1, the user clicks the switch of the personal hotspot (turn it on), and in response to the user's click operation, the hotspot is turned on, and the mobile phone 10 is set to the access point mode.

In addition, under the network name and password, you can also include a reminder to access the mobile network: "Allow other users to Or the device searches your shared network "AAA"."; that is, in addition to opening the personal hotspot in the network management APP, the personal hotspot interface in the settings of the mobile phone can also receive the trigger command input by the user to open the personal hotspot, or in the The control center of the shortcut menu can also receive a trigger command input by the user to turn on the personal hotspot, and after turning on the hotspot, other users or devices are allowed to find the hotspot name "AAA" of the shared network of the mobile phone.

Step S502, the router enters the workstation mode through a second predetermined manner.

Wherein, the second predetermined manner includes: a manner in which the router receives a user clicking a target button to input a third trigger instruction and responds to the third trigger instruction. For example, the router 20 receives the third trigger instruction input by the user, and enters the workstation mode in response to the third trigger instruction.

Exemplarily, the third trigger instruction may be an instruction input by the user after the user clicks the target button for a preset duration, for example, the preset duration may be 3 seconds. As shown in (d) of Figure 6-1, the third trigger instruction may be an instruction input by the user by pressing and holding the target button for 3 seconds.

Exemplarily, the third trigger instruction may further include an instruction input by the user through a touch screen or a microphone. For example, an instruction input by the user double-clicking the working mode control displayed on the display screen of the router 20, or a voice switching instruction received through the microphone, etc. (for example: "small road, small road, switch to workstation mode or station mode"); In response to the third trigger instruction, the working mode is switched to the workstation mode.

It should be noted that the second predetermined manner of making the router enter the workstation mode is not limited to the manner described above, but may also include other predetermined manners, such as remote control manners, etc., which are not specifically limited herein.

It should be understood that, for a newly purchased router, after the power is turned on and the external wired network connector is plugged in, the workstation mode can be directly entered under the condition that the second predetermined mode is implemented immediately. After the router is powered on and plugged into the external wired network connector, it can directly enter the access point mode without external triggers or presets, or the reset router can also be in the access point mode; in the above In the access point mode, the router can enter the access point mode by implementing the second predetermined manner (for example, receiving a third trigger instruction).

In addition, the router 20 can cover all previous configuration information and disconnect all connections by implementing the second predetermined manner, and then enter the workstation mode.

Wherein, after the router 20 is powered on, the indicator light 1 is on (the indicator light 1 is a power indicator light).

Through the embodiment of the present application, the router 20 enters the workstation mode, which reduces the possibility of malicious connection or configuration of other electronic devices other than the user electronic device, and improves the security of the router's network configuration and network access.

Step S503, the mobile phone broadcasts the protocol message and the access point information.

Exemplarily, after starting the access point mode, the mobile phone broadcasts a protocol message and access point information; wherein, the protocol message includes a target identification field and access point information.

Exemplarily, in the access point mode, the mobile phone 10 may periodically send broadcast frames, for example, once every 100 ms; the broadcast frames may be protocol packets and/or access point information. The protocol message may be a data packet based on the Bluetooth protocol, and the data packet may have a specific data format. The access point information may include the hotspot name of the personal hotspot of the handset 10 .

Exemplarily, the data packet may include a header part and a data part; the packet header part may include a type descriptor and a data size descriptor for the two parts constituting the data packet; the length of the data part may be determined by the data size descriptor. The type descriptor and the data size descriptor can respectively occupy data bits of a preset size.

Exemplarily, the protocol message may include a target identification field, such as "connection"; the target identification field may be located in the data part of the data packet. The protocol message may also include the access point information of the mobile phone, such as the hotspot name of the personal hotspot of the mobile phone, such as "AAA", and the network name may also be included in the data part of the data packet.

The target identification field may be a special identification field predetermined by the mobile phone 10 and the router 20. The special identification field does not limit the type of characters, and may be a field including text, letters, numbers, and symbols. The access point information may include the network name of the personal hotspot of the mobile phone 10, which may be a field in a special format set by the user, for example, the parsed access point information may include the network name "AAA".

It should be understood that when the mobile phone 10 is in the access point mode, the protocol packet and the access point information may be broadcast periodically through different threads, respectively. For example, after the mobile phone 10 turns on the personal hotspot, the first thread broadcasts data packets (ie, protocol packets) based on the Bluetooth protocol, and the second thread broadcasts the access point information in the form of a beacon frame (beacon frame). Wherein, the two threads may be broadcasts sent by the same wireless module, or may be broadcasts sent by different wireless modules respectively.

Exemplarily, the mobile phone 10 can also broadcast different types of data through physical channels of different frequencies and based on the Bluetooth low energy protocol. For example, protocol packets and beacon frames can also be broadcast through different physical channels.

Exemplarily, after the processor of the mobile phone 10 detects that the personal hotspot of the mobile phone 10 is turned on and is in the access point mode, it can send an instruction to the wireless module (such as a Bluetooth module) to notify the wireless module to send a protocol message or access point information; The wireless module can send different broadcasts through different threads, such as sending protocol packets and access point information.

In some embodiments, after starting the access point mode, the mobile phone can start broadcasting protocol packets and access point information.

On the interface 603 shown in (c) of FIG. 6-1 , the area 603-2 may not be included. In operation 1 shown in (c) in Figure 6-1, the user clicks the switch of the personal hotspot (turn it on), the mobile phone 10 responds to the user's click operation, and turns on the hotspot, and the mobile phone 10 enters the access point mode, Start to periodically broadcast access point information and protocol packets.

In some other embodiments, before broadcasting the protocol message, the method further includes: after the mobile phone starts the access point mode, receiving a second trigger instruction input by the user, in response to the second trigger instruction, starting the network configuration guide, and the network configuration guide Used to indicate the start of broadcasting protocol packets.

Exemplarily, after the mobile phone 10 starts the access point mode, as a general state, it only broadcasts the access point information, and does not start to broadcast the protocol message. After the mobile phone receives the second trigger instruction, it starts to broadcast the protocol message.

Wherein, the network distribution guide may be a control on the personal hotspot interface of the mobile phone 10; the second trigger instruction may be an instruction input by the user by clicking on the control; after the processor of the mobile phone 10 detects that the user clicks the control, it responds to the click Operation, send an instruction to the wireless module, and the wireless module starts to broadcast the protocol message.

On the interface 603 shown in (c) of FIG. 6-1, an area 603-2 may also be included, and the controls or icons of the network configuration wizard may be included in the area 603-2. For the application scenario of the wireless network where the mobile phone 10 only provides the personal hotspot, in order to reduce the power consumption or the occupancy rate of the processor memory caused by the simultaneous broadcasting of the protocol packet and the access point information after the mobile phone 10 turns on the personal hotspot, in Figure 6- After the user performs operation 1 on the interface 603 shown in (c) in Fig. 1, in response to the click operation of operation 1, the personal hotspot is turned on, and the access point information can only be broadcast periodically; then the user on the interface 603 After the region 603-2 continues to perform operation 2, in response to the click operation of operation 2, it starts to periodically broadcast the protocol message.

It should be noted that the interface 603 shown in (c) of FIG. 6-1 may be an application (for example, the network management APP shown in the interface 601 shown in (a) of FIG. 6-1 ) , the interface entered by the mobile phone 10 in response to the user clicking on the function menu; it may also be the interface entered by the mobile phone 10 in response to the user clicking the personal hotspot menu in the "Settings" application (eg, on interface 601) or the control center of the notification interface. The logic that the mobile phone 10 can periodically broadcast the protocol message including the target identification field can be the setting of the application layer of the software architecture of the mobile phone 10, and does not need to involve the modification of the framework layer. Therefore, the broadcast protocol message can be implemented through a separate software APP (for example, the network management APP shown in the interface 601 shown in (a) of Figure 6-1) or in the application of the personal hotspot set on the mobile phone logic.

Step S504, the router identifies the received protocol packet, and obtains a target identification field in the protocol packet.

Step S505, the router acquires the access point information, and matches the acquired access point information with the access point information in the protocol packet.

Step S506, if the matches are consistent, the router establishes a communication connection with the mobile phone.

Step S507, the router feeds back information of successful connection to the mobile phone.

Exemplarily, after receiving the protocol message broadcast by the mobile phone in the workstation mode, the router recognizes the received protocol message, and if it recognizes that the protocol message contains a predetermined target identification field, then obtains the access point information, The obtained access point information is matched with the access point information in the protocol packet.

Exemplarily, after the router 20 enters the workstation mode, it may be in a passive receiving state and receive protocol packets sent by the mobile phone 10 .

It should be noted that the broadcast communication between the mobile phone 10 and the router 20 may be connectionless data communication. The mobile phone 10 broadcasts data on the physical channel of broadcast communication, and the router 20 can scan and receive data on the corresponding channel according to its own strategy. For example, the physical channel of broadcast communication may select a radio frequency channel whose center frequency is 2402MHz, 2426MHz or 2480MHz.

In addition, the wireless modules of the mobile phone 10 and the router 20 can both support broadcast communication and data reception on multiple channels, and for different types of data, they can also broadcast and receive data through physical channels of different frequencies. The broadcast communication between the mobile phone 10 and the router 20 may be connectionless data communication based on the Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) protocol.

Exemplarily, after receiving the protocol packet through the above-mentioned physical channel, the router 20 parses and identifies the protocol packet, and obtains the target identification field and the access point information in the protocol packet. The target identification field is a special identification field predetermined by the router 20 and the mobile phone 10, for example, the target identification field may be "connection". After the central processing unit of the router 20 parses the target identification field, it obtains the access point information; on the one hand, the central processing unit issues an instruction to the wireless module to control the wireless module to search for and receive the access point information broadcast by the mobile phone 10 through the physical channel; On the one hand, the central processing unit can also read the access point information previously received and stored in the memory.

It should be noted that the target identifier field in the protocol packet is used to trigger the router 20 to acquire the access point information broadcast by the mobile phone 10, and to match the access point information in the protocol packet with the acquired access point information. The process; wherein, the obtained access point information may be the access point information received and stored in the router 20 before the router 20 identifies the protocol message, or it may be when the router 20 identifies the target identification field or after Received access point information.

Exemplarily, the manner in which the router 20 scans the access point information broadcast by the mobile phone may be an active scanning manner or a passive scanning manner. If the active scanning method is adopted, the wireless module of the router 20 may send a probe signal (also referred to as a probe request frame probe request) by broadcasting. In the passive scanning mode, the router 20 passively receives the access point information broadcast by the mobile phone 10 .

It should be noted that the active scanning method is that the router 20 actively detects and searches for the access point information including the hotspot name, and the router 20 will send the detection signal in the form of broadcast on the physical channel supported by it in turn to detect the existence of the surrounding. and get access point information including hotspot name.

The detection signal may also include a specified network name (or SSID), for example, the specified network name may be generated according to the hotspot name in the access point information parsed from the protocol packet; the detection signal may not include Specify the network name.

If the detection signal includes the specified network name, after the mobile phone 10 receives the detection signal, the mobile phone 10 finds that the network name in the detection signal is the same as its own network name, and the router can receive the response from the mobile phone 10 . If the detection signal does not include the specified network name, the router 20 can receive responses from all surrounding electronic devices that can receive the detection signal and can broadcast its own access point information, so that the router 20 can obtain the access points of all surrounding electronic devices. entry point information.

Exemplarily, if there is access point information that matches the access point information in the protocol message in the access point information acquired by the router, the router establishes a communication connection with the mobile phone, and reports back to the mobile phone that the communication connection is successful. Information.

Exemplarily, when the router 20 receives the access point information broadcast by the mobile phone 10 through passive scanning, or obtains the access point information of multiple surrounding electronic devices through active scanning, the router 20 will scan the obtained access point information. Match with the access point information in the protocol packet. The router 20 determines whether the access point information broadcasted by the mobile phone 10 is the same as the access point information in the protocol message. If they are the same, the router 20 establishes a communication connection with the mobile phone 10; or the access point information broadcasted from multiple surrounding electronic devices In the protocol message, the same access point information as the access point information in the protocol message is determined, and a communication connection is established with the corresponding electronic device corresponding to the access point information.

Exemplarily, after the router 20 receives the access point information that is the same as the access point information in the protocol packet by means of active scanning or passive scanning, it can perform link authentication and verification on the electronic device corresponding to the access point information. so as to establish a communication connection with the electronic device (mobile phone).

Exemplarily, the link authentication process performed by the mobile phone 10 and the router 20 may include open system authentication or shared key authentication. The open system authentication means that the router 20 can send an authentication request to the mobile phone 10, and the mobile phone 10 allows the authentication of the router 20 to succeed, and the link authentication is passed. Shared key authentication means that the router 20 and the mobile phone 10 can pre-set a key. After the router 20 sends an authentication request to the mobile phone 10, the mobile phone 10 verifies the legitimacy of the identity of the router 20 through the preset key, and the link after verification is valid. Certification passed.

Exemplarily, after the link authentication is passed, the router 20 associates with the mobile phone 10 . The router 20 may send an association request frame to the mobile phone 10; after receiving the association request frame sent by the router 20, the mobile phone 10 feeds back an association response frame to the router 20, thereby completing the association. After the association is completed, a wireless link for data communication, that is, a communication connection, is established between the router 20 and the mobile phone 10 .

Exemplarily, as shown in (d) of FIG. 6-1, after the router 20 establishes a communication connection with the mobile phone 10, the router 20 may also send out a prompt message that the connection is successful. It can be prompted by flashing the indicator light 2 for a preset number of times, it can also be prompted by the words "connection successful" displayed on the display screen, and the voice of "connection successful" can also be played through the speaker; the specific prompting method here is not limited. .

In addition, after the communication connection is established, the router 20 may also feed back information that the communication connection is successful to the mobile phone 10, so as to notify the mobile phone that the operation of the subsequent process can be performed.

Exemplarily, the communication connection is a connection through any one of Bluetooth, short-range wireless communication technology, and data network.

Through the embodiment of the present application, the mobile phone 10 sends a protocol message to the router 20, and the router 20 obtains the access point information broadcast by the mobile phone 10 after identifying the target identification field in the protocol message, and the access point information broadcast by the mobile phone 10. After matching with the access point information in the protocol message, it can be determined that the router to which the user's electronic device (mobile phone) is connecting is its own router, thereby preventing the user from accidentally connecting to other routers by mistake.

Step S508, the mobile phone receives the network configuration information input by the user.

Step S509, the mobile phone sends network configuration information to the router.

Exemplarily, after receiving the successful communication connection information fed back by the router, the mobile phone receives the network configuration information input by the user, and sends the network configuration information to the router for network configuration.

The information about the successful communication connection is fed back after the router 20 establishes the communication connection with the mobile phone 10, and the conditions for establishing the communication connection between the router 20 and the mobile phone 10 include: the protocol message received by the router includes a target identification field, and the information obtained by the router The access point information contains the access point information that matches the access point information in the protocol packet.

In some embodiments, after the mobile phone receives the information that the communication connection is successful fed back by the routing device, the mobile phone displays a window for the user to input network configuration information.

Exemplarily, after the router 20 establishes a communication connection with the mobile phone 10 , the router 20 may also feed back the information of the successful connection and the address information of the configuration router to the mobile phone 10 . After receiving the feedback information, the mobile phone 10 can switch to the next interface, such as the interface 604 shown in (e) in Figure 6-2; or the mobile phone 10 receives the operation 2 performed by the user in the area 603-2 and After receiving the successful connection information and the address information of the configuration router fed back by the router, switch to interface 604 .
