Method and device for authorizing network access

Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and device for authorizing access to a network. The method is applied to a router, and includes: obtaining an access request sent by a terminal device for a target network, the access request includes a target access password, and the target network is associated with the router; any one of the access passwords; if yes, based on the correspondence between the access password and the access authority level, determine the target access authority level corresponding to the target access password; agree to the access request, and grant the terminal device The target permission to access the target network, where the target permission is the permission corresponding to the target access permission level; if not, reject the access request. It can be seen that in the application scenario of network sharing, the embodiment of the present invention can ensure that the necessary network access is satisfied on the premise that all legal access objects can access the network.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a method and device for authorizing access to a network. Background technique [0002] With the development of communication technology, the coverage of the network is more and more extensive, such as coffee shops, bars, barbershops and other businesses will provide networks, for example, provide wireless networks. Assuming that an object is within the coverage of a wireless network provided by a merchant, when the object wants to access the wireless network through its own mobile device, the object only needs to obtain the access password corresponding to the wireless network, and pass its own The mobile terminal in possession sends out an access request carrying the access password, and after the access request is authenticated, it can successfully access the wireless network provided by the merchant. [0003] It is easy to see that, in the above-mentioned networking mo...

Problems solved by technology

In this way, when there are many legitimate access objects, a large amount of bandwidth is occupied, which may cause some necessary network access to be unsatisfied

For example: when there are many customers accessing the wireless network, these customers will occupy more network bandwidth, which will cause many tasks of the merchant, such as network payment services, etc. cannot be carried out normally, which will bring great inconvenience to customers. good experience
