Patent ID: 11582606

Abstract:
Disclosed are a terminal verification method, an AP device, a terminal and a system, wherein the AP device is an encrypted AP device. The method comprises: receiving a connection request sent by a first terminal, wherein the connection request comprises identification information of the first terminal; querying an authorization list according to the identification information of the first terminal, wherein the authorization list includes identification information of terminals located within a preset password-free range; and returning an authorization response to the first terminal when the authorization list includes the identification information of the first terminal, wherein the authorization response is used for instructing the first terminal to establish a network connection with the AP device. The AP device does not need to verify a first terminal located within a password-free range, thereby reducing the number of first terminals that require identity verification within a WLAN coverage range, reducing the resource consumption of the identity verification for the AP device, and enabling the use of a WLAN to be more convenient.
