[0002] WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) is a wireless communication technology. For WLAN devices on the market, when users modify the wireless parameters of an AP (Access Point) and reconnect to the AP, they usually need to re-operate on the STA (Station) device. For example, manually scan and search for APs and enter passwords, or complete network access through WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup).

[0003] WPS is a certification project organized and implemented by the WiFi Alliance. Its main purpose is to simplify the security encryption configuration of wireless networks. Wireless products with this function often have a function key on the body, called the WPS button. Users need to press this button to establish a secure connection between the site device and the wireless access point. Currently, these methods require users to manually operate to re-access the network after the wireless LAN configuration is updated. This requires notifying each user after the configuration is updated, which increases user maintenance costs.

[0055] Understandably, Figure 2 The structure shown is only a schematic diagram of the structure of the electronic device 100. The electronic device 100 may also include Figure 2 More or fewer components as shown, or with Figure 2 Different configurations are shown. Figure 2 Each component shown in the figure can be implemented by hardware, software or a combination thereof.

[0056] The following will take the wireless access point as the execution subject to introduce the wireless local area network connection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 , is a flow chart of a wireless local area network connection method applied to a site device provided in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0057] Step S202, when updating the configuration parameters of the wireless local area network, the working mode is set to the configuration update mode, and a specific beacon frame is broadcast periodically.

[0058] In this embodiment, when the wireless access point updates the configuration parameters of the wireless local area network, it will set its own working mode to the configuration update mode, that is, enter the network configuration state, and will periodically broadcast a specific beacon frame. This specific beacon frame can be understood as a Beacon (beacon frame) carrying a specific identifier.

[0059] It can be understood that, compared with the method in the prior art that requires the user to manually press the WPS button to enable the wireless access point to enter the network configuration state, the embodiment of the present invention automatically changes the working mode when the wireless access point updates the configuration parameters, so that the wireless access point automatically enters the network configuration state, thereby eliminating the need for manual operation by the user and simplifying the operation steps.

[0060] Step S204: if a probe request frame carrying the button configuration PBC information and sent by the site device after identifying the specific beacon frame is received, the site device is authenticated according to the probe request frame.

[0061] Step S206, when the site device authentication is successful, a first probe response frame indicating support for the PBC function is sent to the site device, so that the site device receives the first probe response frame, obtains updated configuration parameters by executing the Wi-Fi Simple Configuration WSC authentication process, and connects to the wireless access point according to the updated configuration parameters.

[0062] It is understandable that PBC (Push Button Configuration) is a way of connecting to the network provided by WPS technology, that is, triggering the network connection process by pressing a button. The existing method is that the user first presses the WPS button on the wireless access point to put the wireless access point in the network configuration state for a period of time, and then the user presses the WPS button on the site device within the time period to trigger the connection process between the wireless access point and the site device.

[0063] Since the existing method is complicated and cumbersome to operate, the embodiment of the present invention simplifies the triggering operation by broadcasting a specific beacon frame and authenticating the site device. That is, during the process of the wireless access point periodically broadcasting a specific beacon frame, if a site device recognizes the specific beacon frame, it will send a probe request frame (Probe Request) carrying PBC information to the wireless access point to request the wireless access point to access the network through the PBC function.

[0064] The wireless access point will then authenticate the site device based on the received probe request frame. If the wireless access point determines that the site device is successfully authenticated, it will send a probe response frame (ProbeResponse) carrying a True mark, i.e., the first probe response frame, to the site device. It can be understood that the wireless access point accepts the site device's request to access the network through the PBC function by sending a probe response frame indicating support for the PBC function to the site device.

[0065] After receiving the first detection response frame, the site device can obtain the updated configuration parameters by executing the WSC authentication process, and connect to the wireless access point according to the updated configuration parameters to access the wireless LAN with updated configuration. Among them, the WSC (Wi-Fi Simple Configuration) authentication process is a standard process for achieving secure network connection through a simplified wireless network configuration method. That is, the user does not need to operate manually, and the site device can automatically access the wireless LAN with updated configuration.

[0066] It can be seen that based on the above steps, when the wireless access point updates the configuration parameters of the wireless LAN, it sets the working mode to the configuration update mode and periodically broadcasts a specific beacon frame; if a probe request frame carrying the button configuration PBC information sent by the site device after identifying the specific beacon frame is received, the site device is authenticated according to the probe request frame; if the site device is successfully authenticated, the first probe response frame indicating support for the PBC function is sent to the site device, so that the site device receives the first probe response frame, and obtains the updated configuration parameters by executing the Wi-Fi simple configuration WSC authentication process, and connects to the wireless access point according to the updated configuration parameters. By making the wireless access point automatically enter the network configuration state when updating the configuration, and automatically passing the WSC authentication process to access the wireless LAN when the site device is successfully authenticated. Therefore, the network with updated configuration can be automatically accessed without manual operation by the user, realizing imperceptible access to the network and improving the user experience.

[0067] Optionally, for step S204, an embodiment of the present invention provides a possible implementation method.

[0068] Step S204-1: query all MAC addresses in the database to see whether the MAC address carried by the probe request frame exists.

[0069] Step S204-3A: If yes, it is determined that the site device authentication is successful.

[0070] Step S204-3B: If it does not exist, it is determined that the site device authentication fails.

[0071] It is understandable that the database of the wireless access point stores the MAC address of each site device that has been successfully authenticated in the past. And the received probe request frame carries the MAC address of the site device. Then the wireless access point can authenticate the site device by querying the database to prevent illegal devices from accessing the wireless LAN.

[0072] In this embodiment, the wireless access point can query whether the MAC address carried by the probe request frame exists in all MAC addresses in the database. If it exists, it means that the site device sending the probe request frame has been connected to the wireless access point before, and the site device is considered not to be an illegal device, and then the authentication of the site device is determined to be successful, that is, the site device is allowed to access the wireless LAN through the WSC authentication process, thereby realizing non-perception access to the network.

[0073] If it does not exist, it means that the site device sending the probe request frame has not been connected to the wireless access point before, and it is considered that the site may be an illegal device. Then the site device authentication is determined to have failed, that is, the site device is not allowed to access the wireless LAN through the WSC authentication process. In this way, illegal devices can be prevented from accessing the wireless LAN, thereby ensuring the security of the network connection.

[0074] Optionally, after step S204, the embodiment of the present invention further provides an implementation method.

[0075] Step S208, when the site device authentication fails, a second probe response frame indicating that the PBC function is not supported is sent to the site device, so that the site device receives the second probe response frame, obtains updated configuration parameters by executing a regular authentication process, and connects to the wireless access point according to the updated configuration parameters.

[0076] In this embodiment, after the wireless access point authenticates the site device based on the received probe request frame, if it is determined that the site device authentication fails, it will send a probe response frame carrying a False mark, i.e., a second probe response frame, to the site device. It can be understood that the wireless access point rejects the request of the site device to access the network through the PBC function by sending a probe response frame indicating that the PBC function is not supported to the site device.

[0077] After receiving the second detection response frame, the site device can only obtain the updated configuration parameters by executing the regular authentication process, such as by the user manually entering the password or through WPS, and then connect to the wireless access point according to the updated configuration parameters to access the wireless LAN with the updated configuration.

[0078] The following will take the station device as the execution subject to introduce the wireless local area network connection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 , is a flow chart of a wireless local area network connection method applied to a site device provided in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0079] Step S302: receiving and identifying a specific beacon frame broadcasted by a wireless access point when updating configuration parameters of a wireless local area network.

[0080] Step S304, after identifying the specific beacon frame, the working mode is set to the configuration update mode, and a probe request frame carrying the button configuration PBC information is sent to the wireless access point, so that the wireless access point authenticates the site device according to the probe request frame.

[0081] Step S306: If a first probe response frame indicating support for the PBC function is received and sent by the wireless access point when determining that the site device authentication is successful, the updated configuration parameters are obtained by executing the Wi-Fi Simple Configuration WSC authentication process, and the wireless access point is connected according to the updated configuration parameters.

[0082] In this embodiment, when the wireless access point updates the configuration parameters of the wireless local area network, it will periodically broadcast a specific beacon frame, which carries a specific identifier. When the station device receives the specific beacon frame, it will identify it.

[0083] If the site device recognizes the specific identifier carried by the specific beacon frame, it will set its own working mode to the configuration update mode, that is, enter the network configuration state, and will also send a probe request frame carrying PBC information to the wireless access point to request the wireless access point to access the network through the PBC function. The wireless access point will then authenticate the site device based on the probe request frame. If the wireless access point determines that the site device authentication is successful, it will send a probe response frame carrying a True mark, that is, the first probe response frame, to the site device to indicate that it supports the PBC function, that is, accept the site device's request to access the network through the PBC function.

[0084] After receiving the first detection response frame, the site device can obtain the updated configuration parameters by executing the WSC authentication process, and connect to the wireless access point according to the updated configuration parameters to access the wireless LAN with updated configuration. That is, the user does not need to perform manual operations, and the site device can automatically access the wireless LAN with updated configuration.

[0085] Optionally, after the above step S302, the embodiment of the present invention further provides two implementation methods.

[0086] Step S308: When the specific beacon frame is not identified, the updated configuration parameters are obtained by executing a conventional authentication process, and the wireless access point is connected according to the updated configuration parameters.

[0087] In this embodiment, if the site device does not recognize the specific identifier carried by the specific beacon frame, it can only obtain the updated configuration parameters by executing a regular authentication process, such as by the user manually entering a password or through WPS, and then connect to the wireless access point according to the updated configuration parameters to access the wireless LAN with the updated configuration.

[0088] Step S310: if a second probe response frame indicating that the PBC function is not supported is received and sent by the wireless access point when determining that the site device authentication fails, then the updated configuration parameters are obtained by executing a conventional authentication process, and the wireless access point is connected according to the updated configuration parameters.

[0089] In this embodiment, if the wireless access point determines that the site device authentication fails, it will send a probe response frame carrying a False mark, namely, a second probe response frame, to the site device to indicate that it does not support the PBC function, namely, reject the site device's request to access the network through the PBC function.

[0090] After receiving the second detection response frame, the site device can only obtain the updated configuration parameters by executing the regular authentication process, such as by the user manually entering the password or through WPS, and then connect to the wireless access point according to the updated configuration parameters to access the wireless LAN with the updated configuration.

[0091] Optionally, for step S306, an embodiment of the present invention provides a possible implementation method, namely: by executing the WSC authentication process to exchange information with the wireless access point, the local original network name or original key is updated, the updated network name or updated key is obtained, and the wireless access point is connected according to the updated network name or updated key.

[0092] In this embodiment, the configuration parameters include the network name, i.e., SSID (Service Set Identifier) ​​and the key. The site device can exchange information with the wireless access point by executing the WSC authentication process to update the local original network name or original key, and then obtain the updated network name or updated key, and then connect to the wireless access point according to the updated network name or updated key to access the wireless LAN after the updated configuration. Thus, non-perception access to the network is achieved.

[0093] In order to implement the wireless LAN connection method applied to the wireless access point in the above embodiment, an implementation method of a first wireless LAN connection device applied to the wireless access point is given below. Figure 5 , is a functional module diagram of a first wireless local area network connection device provided in an embodiment of the present invention.

The first wireless local area network connection device 400 includes:

[0094] The updating module 410 is used to set the working mode to the configuration updating mode and periodically broadcast specific beacon frames when updating the configuration parameters of the wireless local area network.

[0095] The authentication module 430 is configured to authenticate the site device according to the detection request frame if a detection request frame carrying the button configuration PBC information sent by the site device after the site device identifies the specific beacon frame is received.

[0096] The first connection module 450 is used to send a first detection response frame indicating support for the PBC function to the site device when the site device is successfully authenticated, so that the site device receives the first detection response frame, obtains updated configuration parameters by executing the Wi-Fi simple configuration WSC authentication process, and connects to the current wireless access point according to the updated configuration parameters.

[0097] Optionally, the authentication module 430 is further used to: query whether the MAC address carried by the probe request frame exists among all MAC addresses in the database; if so, determine that the site device authentication is successful; if not, determine that the site device authentication fails.

[0098] Optionally, the first connection module 450 is also used to: when the site device authentication fails, send a second probe response frame to the site device indicating that the PBC function is not supported, so that the site device receives the second probe response frame, obtains updated configuration parameters by executing a regular authentication process, and connects to the wireless access point according to the updated configuration parameters.

[0099] In order to implement the wireless LAN connection method applied to the station device in the above embodiment, an implementation method of a second wireless LAN connection device applied to the station device is given below. Figure 6 , is a functional module diagram of a second wireless LAN connection device provided in an embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that the basic principle and technical effects of the second wireless LAN connection device 500 provided in this embodiment are the same as those of the above embodiment. For the sake of brief description, for matters not mentioned in this embodiment, reference may be made to the corresponding contents in the above embodiment. The second wireless LAN connection device 500 includes:

[0100] The identification module 510 is used to receive and identify a specific beacon frame broadcasted by a wireless access point when updating configuration parameters of a wireless local area network.

[0101] The sending module 530 is used to set the working mode to the configuration update mode after identifying the specific beacon frame, and send a detection request frame carrying the button configuration PBC information to the wireless access point, so that the wireless access point authenticates the site device according to the detection request frame.

[0102] The second connection module 550 is used to obtain updated configuration parameters by executing the Wi-Fi simple configuration WSC authentication process if a first detection response frame indicating support for the PBC function is received when the wireless access point determines that the site device authentication is successful, and connect to the wireless access point according to the updated configuration parameters.

[0103] Optionally, the second connection module 550 is further used to: when a specific beacon frame is not identified, obtain updated configuration parameters by executing a regular authentication process, and connect to the wireless access point according to the updated configuration parameters; or, if a second probe response frame indicating that the PBC function is not supported and sent by the wireless access point when it is determined that the site device authentication fails is received, obtain updated configuration parameters by executing a regular authentication process, and connect to the wireless access point according to the updated configuration parameters.
