It should be understood that, the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory, which do not limit the disclosure.
The drawings herein are incorporated into the specification and constitute a part of the specification, show embodiments in conformity with embodiments of the disclosure, and explain the principle of the disclosure together with the specification.
The embodiments may be described in detail here, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following descriptions refer to the accompanying drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The implementations described in the following example embodiments do not represent all the implementations consistent with the disclosure.
Throughout the drawings, the same or similar reference numbers refer to the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the disclosure. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary, and are intended to explain the disclosure and should not be construed as a limitation of the disclosure. Based on the embodiments in the disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the disclosure. The embodiments of the disclosure may be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The method for networking according to the embodiments of the disclosure may be applied to a scenario for performing networking connection through a router.
With the widespread application of networking technology, networking has gradually become a standard function of intelligent routing. In the related art, the networking among routers may be performed by wired or hotspot (Wi-Fi) connection, leading to problems such as complicated deployment and low security and being unable to meet user requirements. For example, in the method for constructing the networking by means of wired connection, the insertion and disassembly of data cables among multiple routers are needed since the distances among multiple routers are often far apart. As such, there are problems of complicated operation and difficult deployment. For another example, in the method for constructing the networking by means of hotspot connection, multiple routers need to be preset with the same key information, and the preset key information is used to exchange networking information in the process of hotspot connection, so as to realize a networking connection. There are two possible solutions for the scenario where the same key information is preset and router networking is performed through the hotspot connection. In the first possible solution, the same key information is directly preset for routers of the same model or batch. When the first possible solution is applied for adjacent networking where a coverage area includes overlapping areas, there is a problem of the networking concatenation due to the same key information and security risks exist. In the second possible solution, the same key information is directly preset for multiple routers used to construct the same networking, but there is a problem that new routers cannot be added to expand the coverage area of networking. To sum up, in the related art, the usage requirements cannot be satisfied by the method of constructing a networking through a router.
In addition, as the Near Field Communication (NFC) application scenarios become more and more abundant, products such as routers also begin to deploy with a NFC function. The NFC function of routers also provides more possibilities for networking among routers.
In view of this background, the disclosure provides a method for networking, which is applied to a terminal. For a router configured with an NFC sensing device, the key information needed for router networking may be transmitted by establishing NFC interaction between the terminal and the router. Since a user may independently select a router to interact with the terminal, it is possible to establish a networking between the routers designated by the user. Since the key information needed for router networking may be transmitted between routers through the terminal, the key information may be set to be non-universal, which may improve the concatenation of adjacent networking caused by the preset universal key information. Moreover, since the key information is transmitted between the terminal and the newly added router through the NFC function, the newly added router may be added to the network. In this way, the actual usage requirements for expanding the coverage area of the networking may be satisfied. In the method for networking according to the embodiments of the disclosure, the key information is transmitted through the NFC function between the terminal and the router, and after the key information is transmitted, networking between the routers may be established through a hotspot. Therefore, the networking establishment process does not need to insert and disassemble data cables. The method for networking according to the embodiments of the disclosure has simple operations and is convenient for deployment, and may meet the actual needs of establishing a networking through a router.
In the disclosure, for the convenience of description below, the router, that interacts with the terminal so that the terminal and the router itself obtain the key information, is called a first router, the router whose key information is written by the terminal is called a second router. An NFC sensing device of the first router is called a first NFC sensing device, and an NFC sensing device of the second router is called a second NFC sensing device. In the disclosure, the NFC sensing device may be set on the router and may include an NFC tag as shown in
At S11, in response to the terminal approaching the first NFC sensing device of the first router and entering an effective communication range of the first NFC sensing device, the terminal interacts with the first NFC sensing device, so that the first router or the terminal may obtain key information.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the terminal interacts with the first NFC sensing device so that the first router or the terminal obtains the key information, which may be understood as that the terminal transmits the key information to the first router (or the first router transmits the key information to the terminal). The transmission of the key information is realized through the interaction between the terminal and the first NFC sensing device.
At S12, in response to the terminal approaching the second NFC sensing device of the second router and entering an effective communication range of the second NFC sensing device, the key information is written into the second NFC sensing device.
In the method for networking according to the embodiments of the disclosure, the terminal may write the key information obtained by the first router into the second router, so that the first router and the second router may obtain the key information that may be sharable. Further, the first router and the second router may exchange information and establish networking by using the key information.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, since the first or second NFC sensing device is usually a low-level NFC sensing device and has a function of being only-read or only-written, transmitting the key information by the terminal may save the deployment cost of the NFC sensing device. In addition, the distances between multiple routers used to construct the same networking are usually far apart, and NFC interaction cannot be performed directly. Therefore, the method of transmitting the key information by the terminal is more suitable for actual usage requirements. In an actual scenario of deploying routers, when the first router and the second router may meet the conditions for direct NFC interaction, transmitting the key information may also be achieved directly through the interaction between the first NFC sensing device and the second NFC sensing device. For example, the first router writes the key information into the first NFC sensing device, and when the first NFC sensing device and the second NFC sensing device are located within the effective communication range of each other, the first NFC sensing device writes the key information into the second NFC sensing device, so that the second router obtains the key information.
In an embodiment, the key information may be generated by the terminal. In addition, the terminal may write the key information into the first router via the first NFC sensing device, so that the first router may obtain the key information.
At S21, in response to the terminal approaching the first NFC sensing device of the first router and entering the effective communication range of the first NFC sensing device, the key information generated by the terminal is determined.
The key information generated by the terminal may be obtained by a specified value input by the user, or may be generated based on a random value obtained by the terminal through a random algorithm.
In an example, when the key information is generated by using the specified numerical value input by the user, the user may input different numerical values, so that the terminal generates different key information matching different numerical values. Based on the different key information matching different numerical values input by the user, different networking maybe established. For example, the user may control the terminal to perform transmission of the key information with router B1, router B2 and router B3 through the key information matching numerical value A1, and the user may control the terminal to perform transmission of the key information with router B4, router B5 and router B6 through the key information matching numerical value A2. In this case, router B1, router B2, and router B3 may construct networking C1; and router B4, router B5 and router B6 may construct networking C2. In addition, since the key information used by the networking C1 and the networking C2 is different, there is no problem of concatenation between the networking C1 and the networking C2 caused by the universal key information.
At S22, the key information generated by the terminal is written into the first NFC sensing device, so that the first router may obtain the key information.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, when the key information is generated by the terminal, the setting of key information is more flexible, and personalized settings may be performed for different usage scenarios. Moreover, it may be understood that, since the multiple routers that construct the networking are connected through the key information generated by the terminal, the key information among the multiple routers may be the same information. Thus, for a plurality of routers for constructing a networking, a connection may be realized between any two routers, which improves the connectivity between the routers within the networking.
In another embodiment, the key information may be generated by the first router, and the terminal may obtain the key information by reading the key information written into the first NFC sensing device.
At S31, in response to the terminal approaching the first NFC sensing device of the first router and entering the effective communication range of the first NFC sensing device, the key information written into the first NFC sensing device is determined.
The key information written into the first NFC sensing device may be generated and written by the first router.
In an example, the key information written into the first NFC sensing device may be generated based on a value obtained by the first router through a random algorithm, and may also be preset before the first router leaves the factory. In the embodiment of the disclosure, since the second router obtains the key information of the first router via the terminal, the second router does not need to have preset the same key information as the first router before leaving the factory. In addition, in order to reduce the possibility of establishing the networking between the first router and a router that still obtains the key information without the interaction to the terminal (that is, its preset key information is the same as that of the first router), different key information may be preset by different routers before leaving the factory.
At S32, the key information written into the first NFC sensing device is read, so that the terminal obtains the key information.
In the method for networking according to the embodiments of the disclosure, the first router generates key information, and the terminal transmits the key information generated by the first router to the second router, so that the first router and the second router may obtain the key information for establishing the interaction at the same time. In this way, the first router and the second router may establish the networking through the key information.
Based on the same concept, an embodiment of the disclosure also provides a method for networking applied to a router. It may be understood that the method for networking applied to a router according to the embodiment of the disclosure may be applied to the first router or the second router involved in the above embodiments.
At S41, communication detecting is performed by an NFC sensing device of the router.
At S42, in response to detecting that the terminal approaches the NFC sensing device and enters the effective communication range of the NFC sensing device, the router interacts with the terminal via the NFC sensing device, so that the router or the terminal obtains key information.
In the method for networking according to the embodiments of the disclosure, the router may interact with the terminal via the configured NFC sensing device, so that the router or the terminal may obtain the key information. In this way, the router that obtains the key information may encrypt networking information by using the key information and broadcast the encrypted networking information, or may decrypt the encrypted networking information after receiving the encrypted networking information sent by other routers and send a networking request. In the above process, the router sends the networking information or sends the networking request to perform networking connection.
In certain embodiment of the disclosure, the key information may be generated by the router. The key information generated by the router may be transmitted to the terminal via the interaction between the router and the terminal, so that the router and the terminal obtain the key information. Alternatively, the key information may also be generated by the terminal. The key information generated by the terminal may be transmitted to the router via the interaction between the router and the terminal, so that the router and the terminal may obtain the key information. The specific implementation of generating the key information by the terminal or by the router has been described in the above embodiments, and reference may be made to any of the above embodiments for related content.
In an embodiment, the router may generate key information, and write the generated key information into the NFC sensing device, so that the terminal may obtain the key information by reading the key information written into the NFC sensing device.
At S52, in response to detecting that the terminal approaches the NFC sensing device and enters the effective communication range of the NFC sensing device, it is determined that the router generates and writes key information into the NFC sensing device.
At S53, the key information written into the NFC sensing device is transmitted to a terminal, so that the terminal obtains the key information.
With the method according to the embodiment of the disclosure, the router may generate the key information, and when the terminal approaches the NFC sensing device and enters the effective communication range of the NFC sensing device, the key information may be transmitted to the terminal, so that the terminal may obtain the key information.
In another embodiment, the router may receive the key information written by the terminal via the NFC sensing device.
At S62, in response to detecting that the terminal approaches the NFC sensing device and enters the effective communication range of the NFC sensing device, key information written by the terminal into the NFC sensing device is read, so that the router obtains the key information.
With the method according to the embodiment of the disclosure, when the terminal approaches the NFC sensing device and enters the effective communication range of the NFC sensing device, the key information written by the terminal may be received via the NFC sensing device, so that the router may obtain the key information.
In an example, when the key information is generated by the router, or the key information is written by the terminal, the router may be controlled to encrypt networking information with the key information, and broadcast the encrypted networking information.
At S71, encryption processing on networking information is performed based on the key information.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the networking information is used to instruct other routers to perform targeted propagation of a networking request to the router that sends the networking information.
At S72, the encrypted networking information is broadcast.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the networking information may be broadcast by means of Bluetooth broadcast. For example, the networking information may be set in a management frame (i.e., mgmt), and the encrypted networking information may be broadcast by broadcasting the management frame.
At S73, in response to receiving a networking request sent by the other router, networking connection with the other router is performed.
In certain embodiment of the disclosure, the router may encrypt and broadcast the networking information through the key information. Further, when receiving the networking request sent by other routers, the router may perform networking connection with other routers based on the networking request. The networking request may be triggered by other routers after the networking information is successfully decrypted based on the key information.
In an example, other routers may obtain a mesh address corresponding to the router that sends the networking information after the networking information is decrypted. Further, other routers may send a networking request encrypted with the key information to the mesh address after decryption. In this way, the router that sends the networking information may receive the networking request, and perform authentication of the key information by decrypting the networking request with the key information, thus determining that the other routers are the routers that need to perform networking connection. In this case, the router that sends the networking information may establish a secure connection with other routers, and then perform a subsequent networking connection.
In certain embodiment of the disclosure, the router that broadcasts the encrypted networking information may be understood as the first router involved in the above embodiments. In other words, the first router may also be understood as a router that performs networking connection by broadcasting networking information and receiving a networking request.
In an example, when the networking information encrypted by the key information and sent by other routers is received, the router that receives the key information written by the terminal may decrypt the networking information and send a networking request in response to successful decryption.
At S81, in response to receiving the networking information encrypted with the key information, the networking information is decrypted based on the key information.
At S82, in response to successful decryption of the networking information, a networking request is sent.
The key information used for successfully decrypting the networking information is obtained by the terminal through interaction with other routers.
In the method for networking according to the embodiments of the disclosure, when the networking information encrypted with the key information is received, the router may decrypt the networking information by using the key information written by the terminal. In this way, when the networking information is successfully decrypted, the networking request may be sent, so as to perform networking connection with the router that sends the networking information.
In certain embodiment of the disclosure, the router that decrypts the networking information and sends the networking request may be understood as the second router involved in the above embodiment. In other words, the second router may also be understood as a router that performs networking connection by receiving and decrypting the networking information and sending a networking request.
In an example, the terminal may be used as a transmission medium of the key information, and transmit the key information generated by the first router to the second router, so that the second router may decrypt the encrypted networking information generated by the first router with the key information. For example, the terminal may approach the first NFC sensing device to read the key information written into the NFC sensing device. Further, the terminal may approach the second NFC sensing device to write the previously-read key information into an NFC sensing device of the second router. In this way, the second router may obtain the key information by reading the key information written into the second NFC sensing device, and further decrypt the received networking information with the key information.
For example, when the networking information is successfully decrypted, the second router may send a networking request to the first router by using the key information. Further, the first router may verify the key information of the networking request when the networking request is received, and the second router is allowed to connect to the first router (i.e., a secure connection is established) in response that the key information is successfully verified. In this way, the first router and the second router may perform networking connection through the established secure connection, thus obtaining a networking consisting of the first router and the second router.
Based on this, the first router may read the key information included in the first NFC sensing device, and encrypt networking information with the key information, so as to broadcast the encrypted networking information. For example, the first router may store the encrypted networking information in the mgmt, and broadcast the encrypted networking information by broadcasting the mgmt.
In an example, when the terminal writes the key information into the second NFC sensing device, the second router may read the key information in the second NFC sensing device and decrypt the encrypted networking information through the key information when the encrypted networking information is received. When the second router successfully decrypts the networking information, a networking request may be sent to the first router according to the decrypted networking information. Further, when the networking request is received, the first router may verify the key information of the networking request, and when the key information is successfully verified, the second router is allowed to connect to the first router (i.e., a secure connection is established). In this way, the first router and the second router may perform networking connection through the established secure connection, thus obtaining a networking consisting of the first router and the second router.
Based on the same concept, an embodiment of the disclosure also provides a system for networking which includes a terminal, a first router, and a second router. The terminal is configured to in response to approaching a first NFC sensing device of the first router and entering an effective communication range of the first NFC sensing device, read key information included in the first NFC sensing device of the first router, or write key information generated by the terminal into the first NFC sensing device of the first router; and in response to approaching a second NFC sensing device of the second router and entering an effective communication range of the second NFC sensing device, write key information read from the first NFC sensing device into the second NFC sensing device, or write key information generated by the terminal into the second NFC sensing device of the second router. The first router and the second router perform networking based on the key information.
In an example, the user may control the terminal to generate key information, read the key information written into the NFC sensing device, and/or write the key information into the NFC sensing device through designated application program(s) of the terminal. For example, the user may trigger a startup of the designated application program(s) of the terminal through touches, voices, or pressing physical hardware. Further, the user may control the terminal to generate the key information by inputting a specified numerical value or touching a trigger control for randomly generating key information. For another example, the user may touch an NFC interactive control to set the key information generated by the terminal as information that the terminal needs to perform a write operation with the NFC function, so that the terminal may write the key information into the NFC sensing device in response to approaching the router and entering the effective communication range of the NFC sensing device of the router. In addition, the implementation of the terminal reading the key information in the NFC sensing device is similar to the above-mentioned process of writing the key information, which is not described here.
Based on the same concept, an embodiment of the disclosure also provides an apparatus for networking applied to a terminal.

Combining with the units and algorithm steps of each example disclosed in the embodiments of the disclosure, the embodiments of the disclosure may be implemented in hardware or a combination of hardware and computer software. Whether a function is performed by hardware or computer software driving hardware depends on a specific application and design constraints of the technical solution.
