Problems solved by technology

[0002] In a wireless roaming network, multiple wireless access devices are deployed to ensure that wireless clients can access any wireless access device using the same connection configuration. For a strong wireless access device, when most users gather around a certain wireless access device, the network load of this device will be heavy, and the user's Internet experience will be reduced, while the network load of other devices will be light , the comprehensive network bandwidth utilization rate is not high

Embodiment 1

[0041] A method for performing network load balancing when roaming between WiFis. The first step of this method is to support WiFi roaming areas. All WiFi access nodes have the same access settings, so that WiFi clients can connect to one of the WiFi access points. After the node, you can access another node in the WiFi roaming area without re-entering information;

[0042] In the second step, when the WiFi client enters the WiFi roaming area and prepares to connect to the WiFi access point (AP), if the network bandwidth of the WiFi access device has entered a saturated state, it will use the wireless virtual interface to work in the client mode (STA), To scan the surrounding AP;

[0043] In the third step, when the wireless virtual interface scans that there are available access points in the surrounding WiFi roaming area, it turns off its own access identification (SSID) broadcast, enters a short-term silent state, and rejects the access request of the WiFi client;

Embodiment 2

[0047] In the method for performing network load balancing when roaming between WiFis described in Embodiment 1, the first step is that in the wireless roaming network, according to the characteristics of the roaming network, all wireless access points have the same access ID and Certified configurations, and all wireless access points are deployed in adjacent locations to extend network coverage. After the wireless client accesses the roaming network, it can connect to other wireless access points by recording the login information.

Embodiment 3

[0049] The method for performing network load balancing when roaming between WiFis described in Embodiment 1, in the second step, a wireless client STA1 that has been connected to the wireless roaming network moves to the wireless access network of the wireless roaming network Click the wireless coverage area of ​​AP1, and assume that STA1 is the closest to AP1; at this time, STA1 automatically connects to AP1, and the wireless device AP1 judges whether it is in a saturated state. This saturated state is based on the number of client accesses and the current data flow of the network for a period of time , get a network saturation value through weighted calculation, and set a threshold based on experience; when the network saturation value is greater than the threshold, the wireless access point scans and detects the surrounding by setting another virtual interface as the client STA mode The internet.

Abstract

The invention provides a network load balancing method applied to a WiFi roaming area. The method comprises the following steps: S1: presetting a WiFi roaming network with at least two WiFi access points, wherein the WiFi access points have the same SSID (Service Set Identifier) access identifier and the same authentication setting; S2: searching, by a WiFi client, the WiFi access points in the WiFi roaming network, and judging, by a WiFi access device, in the WiFi roaming network, the saturation condition of the network bandwidth; if the network bandwidth is a non-saturated state, performinga network connection of the WiFi client and the WiFi access points; if the network bandwidth is in a saturated state, controlling a wireless virtual interface of the WiFi access device to work in a client mode (STA), and scanning the surrounding WiFi access points. In an actual application process, the access of the wireless client is controlled according to the characteristics of the wireless roaming network, the purpose of network load balancing can be achieved, and the utilization rate of the network bandwidth can be improved.

Description

[technical field] [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of network load balancing methods, in particular to a network load balancing method applied in WiFi roaming areas that can achieve the purpose of network load balancing and improve network bandwidth utilization.
