Mesh networking method and device, gateway equipment and storage medium

Abstract

The invention discloses a Mesh networking method and device, gateway equipment and a storage medium, and relates to the field of wireless networks. The method comprises the following steps: monitoring a detection request frame on a target channel, wherein the detection request frame is automatically sent on the target channel by to-be-accessed gateway equipment in a non-network-distribution state; in response to the monitored detection request frame, indicating that the to-be-accessed gateway equipment meets a networking condition, and receiving a networking instruction, establishing a Wi-Fi protection setup WPS connection with the to-be-accessed gateway equipment; synchronizing networking configuration to the to-be-accessed gateway equipment through the WPS connection, so that the to-be-accessed gateway equipment accesses a Mesh network based on the networking configuration. By adopting the Mesh networking method provided by the embodiment of the invention, a user does not need to manually trigger the to-be-accessed gateway equipment, and Mesh networking can be completed only by triggering a Mesh key of the accessed gateway equipment once, so that the networking operation steps are simplified, and meanwhile, the success rate of Mesh networking is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to the field of wireless networks, and in particular to a Mesh networking method, device, gateway device, and storage medium. Background technique [0002] Mesh (grid) network, also known as multi-hop (multi-hop) network, is a network composed of multiple gateway devices with Mesh functions and configured with the same service set identifier (Service Set Identifier, SSID), which is used to expand the wireless network The networking mode of coverage is different from traditional wireless relays. It is a networking mode that can automatically form a network, automatically synchronize configuration, and even guide wireless terminal access. [0003] In related technologies, when it is necessary to add an unconfigured gateway device to the Mesh network, it is necessary to simultaneously trigger the Mesh buttons on the unconfigured network and the configured gateway within a certain period of time (such as 2 ...
