Problems solved by technology

[0017] However, when the client decides which AP to connect to based on the AP information it has scanned, the control on the network side is very weak. poor performance
[0018] In addition, because the client needs to scan on each channel to determine which AP to access, at this time, the energy of the client is consumed and the air interface resources are occupied at the same time; and the client cannot guarantee the AP selection according to its own standards. Realize the optimal layout of the entire network

Embodiment Construction

[0051] The basic idea of ​​the present invention is that each AP collects the information of the client, and reports the information of the client to the AC, and the AC receives the information of the same client reported by each AP, and selects the client according to the information of the client reported by each AP. The AC determines the access AP of the client, so that the AC can control the client to access the access AP. In addition, the AC allocates a dedicated MAC to the client and delivers the dedicated MAC to the access AP, so that the access AP can use the dedicated MAC to communicate with the client.

[0052] Based on the above ideas, the present invention provides a method for selecting an access AP, which is applied to a wireless local area network including an AC, a client, and multiple APs, such as image 3 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0053] Step 301, each AP sends the received client information to the AC. Wherein, the information of...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for selecting access points (APs), comprising the following steps: an access controller (AC) is made to receive the information on the same client side, which is reported by all access points (APs), and the AC is made to select the APs of the client side according to the information on the client side, which is reported by all the APs; the AC is made to dynamically allot the special media access control (MAC) which is used to communicate with the client side to the selected APs, send the special MAC to the APs and communicate with the client side by the APs according to the special MAC. In the invention, the selection of the APs by the user can be controlled by the client side, and the work load of the client side can be reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of information technology, in particular to a selection method and equipment for accessing an AP. Background technique [0002] WLAN (Wireless Local Area Networks, wireless local area network) provides a wireless connection service of a local area network, which can provide high-speed wireless data access, and has been widely used in various places such as cities, enterprises, buildings, and families. Compared with the traditional wired access method, the wireless local area network allows network users to be more free, completely getting rid of the shackles of cables and port locations, and the wireless local area network makes the terminal easy to carry, easy to move, etc., eliminating or reducing Complicated network wiring, only need to place one or more AP (Access Point, Access Point) devices to establish a local area network covering the entire building or region. [0003] Such as figure 1 As shown, it ...
