Description

Method, equipment and system that network application apparatus is configured
Technical field
The present invention relates to communication technical field, relate in particular to a kind of method, equipment and system that network application apparatus in the reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) is configured.
Background technology
Utilize the WLAN (Wireless LAN, WLAN (wireless local area network)) that IEEE 802.11 agreements are set up that two kinds of forms are arranged: a kind of is the WLAN that AP (Access Point, access point) arranged, and another kind is ad hoc (special) WLAN that does not have AP.
In the WLAN of AP was arranged, the information between each network application apparatus in this net was all transmitted by AP.In ad hoc WLAN (wireless local area network), each network application apparatus is in the status of equity, each network application apparatus and other network application apparatus unicast communications, or cast communication, or broadcast communication need not transmitted through other network application apparatus.Therefore, described ad hoc WLAN (wireless local area network) is called reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) again.From secure context, have among the WLAN of AP, each network application apparatus all needs just can join network through the authentication of AP.And in reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network), the process of authentication is the process that authenticates mutually between each network application apparatus.
In order to set up a WLAN easily and to add new network application apparatus to wlan security ground, WiFi alliance has developed WPS (WiFi Protected Setup, the shielded setting of WiFi) standard at the WLAN that AP is arranged.In this standard, define the Register logic entity and managed the installation of AP and the interpolation of network application apparatus.Accordingly, realize that by Register the method for the interpolation of the installation of AP and network application apparatus can have following several:
(1) input pin mode.When AP being installed or adding network application apparatus, the Register logic entity is found new AP or network application apparatus automatically, and the prompting user installs or the interpolation process.AP is being installed or is adding in the process of network application apparatus, the user only need input the password of AP or application apparatus, password is authenticated in layoutprocedure by the Register logic entity then.After authentication is passed through, by the Register logic entity new AP or network application apparatus are configured, also promptly finish the installation of new AP or the interpolation of network application apparatus.
(2) out-band channel mechanism.When adding new network application apparatus, the Register logic entity does not need to obtain the password of network application apparatus, and directly configuration data is passed to network application apparatus by out-band channel.Out-band channel can be wired modes such as Ethernet, USB, perhaps uses modes such as NFC (Near FieldCommunication, wireless near field communication) card.When utilizing the mode of NFC card, by the Register logic entity configuration data is write the NFC card, read configuration data by network application apparatus from the NFC card again.The process that out-band channel mechanism is transmitted configuration data is safe, does not therefore need to verify the password of network application apparatus and when transmitting configuration data described configuration data is encrypted.
(3) configuration button mode.A configuration button is set respectively on Register logic entity and network application apparatus, by in limiting time, successively pressing the configuration button on request configuration device and the Register logic entity, finish the layoutprocedure of Register logic entity to network application apparatus.
For the third mode,, for this application scenarios of reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) and be not very high scene to security requirement generally speaking, more suitable because it is simple and easy to usefulness.
In the network of AP was arranged, the Register logic entity can directly be realized on AP, also can realize on the application apparatus with enriching user interface such as mobile phone, computer or Special Equipment.But when realizing the WPS configuration in peer-to-peer network, be subjected to the restriction of application scenarios, the Register logic entity generally is implemented on the network application apparatus of some type, unlikelyly provides special registrar function entity device; In addition, limited by cost, also can on the network application apparatus of all support WPS, all not provide Register logic entity function.Below in order to compose a piece of writing conveniently, will provide the application apparatus of Register logic entity function to abbreviate Register equipment as.
Utilizing mode (3) to realize the network application apparatus in the reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) is configured in the process of this technology, the inventor finds that there are the following problems at least in the prior art:
When the network application apparatus that adds reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) when request was separated by far with Register equipment, the availability of WPS method was restricted.In this case, because obstacle appears in interpersonal interchange, the user of request configuration application apparatus can not consult to dispose the time started with the user of Register equipment and exchange necessary facility information safely, so that in layoutprocedure, before pressing configuration button, confirm display message, so the WPS method can't be used.That is to say, when the configuration button of the network application apparatus of asking to add is pressed by its user, far away owing to be separated by, Register equipment one side's user does not know it is which equipment is in this fact of request configuration in advance, therefore, Register equipment one side's user can not press the configuration button of Register logic entity rashly to accept the request of this request configuration device.Like this, the WPS collocation method just can't be used.

Embodiment
In order to be illustrated more clearly in the technical scheme of the embodiment of the invention, the accompanying drawing of required use is done an introduction simply in will describing embodiment below, apparently, accompanying drawing in describing below only is some embodiments of the present invention, for those of ordinary skills, under the prerequisite of not paying creative work, can also obtain other accompanying drawing according to these accompanying drawings.
Describe for convenient, in an embodiment of the present invention, abbreviate network application apparatus to be configured as " requesting service ", and will be arranged in the reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) of having set up, the network application apparatus that can transmit the request configuration messages of described request equipment is called " WPS agent equipment " and abbreviates " agent equipment " as, will provide the network application apparatus of registrar function to abbreviate as in the reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) " Register equipment ".Simultaneously, because described agent equipment has been arranged in reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network), thereby it has passed through the configuration of Register equipment.
Therefore, when requesting service far away from Register equipment, but from one when the agent equipment of no registrar function of net is very near, use the WPS collocation method for convenience, can on the agent equipment of no registrar function, realize the simple configuration agent capability, to be implemented under this occasion configuration to requesting service.The embodiment of the invention just is being based on this thought and is carrying out.
For improving the versatility of WPS collocation method in the reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network), the embodiment of the invention one provides a kind of system that network application apparatus is configured.
As shown in Figure 1, the embodiment of the invention one described system comprises: at least one requesting service 11, at least one agent equipment 12 and at least one Register equipment 13; Wherein, described agent equipment and Register equipment are arranged in the reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) of having set up.
Described request equipment 11 is used for sending the request configuration messages to described agent equipment, and cooperates with described Register equipment and to finish layoutprocedure; Described agent equipment 12 is used to receive the request configuration messages of described request equipment, and the described request configuration messages is transmitted to described Register equipment; Described Register equipment 13 is used for according to the described request configuration messages described request equipment being configured.
As mentioned above, in the embodiment of the invention one, described agent equipment is arranged in the reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) of having set up, that is to say that described agent equipment is the network application apparatus that has carried out configuration through the Register equipment in the described reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network), but this agent equipment does not provide registrar function.Therefore,, be separated by when far away, can transmit its corresponding request configuration messages, thereby finish configuration operation it by Register equipment by agent equipment when requesting service and Register equipment according to the embodiment of the invention one described system.Therefore, the embodiment of the invention one described system has improved the versatility of WPS method in reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network).
Below, two, three, four describe the course of work of the embodiment of the invention one described system in detail in conjunction with the embodiments.
Embodiments of the invention two provide a kind of method that network application apparatus in the reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) is configured.As shown in Figure 2, the embodiment of the invention two described methods comprise the steps:
Step 201, when the Register equipment in the reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) can't directly be configured requesting service, agent equipment receives the request configuration messages of requesting service;
Wherein, described agent equipment and Register equipment all are arranged in the reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) of having set up.That is to say that described agent equipment is to have passed through the network application apparatus that the network application apparatus that has registrar function in the reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) is configured, therefore, this just lays a good foundation for the realization of the embodiment of the invention two.
Step 202, described agent equipment send to described Register equipment with the described request configuration messages, so that described Register equipment is configured described request equipment.
Transmit in the process of described request configuration messages at described agent equipment, at first detect proxy configurations pattern triggering signal by described agent equipment.
Wherein, described proxy configurations pattern triggering signal is that WPS configuration button or other equivalent way that the user by this agent equipment presses on this equipment realizes.For example, other equivalent way can for, when described agent equipment through configuration, and in the short time (for example 1 second), received and the request configuration messages of other requesting service then directly entered the proxy configurations pattern.In addition, can also doublely press or for a long time (for example 3 seconds) press described configuration button, described agent equipment just enters the proxy configurations pattern.
Then, after detecting described proxy configurations pattern triggering signal, described agent equipment is according to the information of Register equipment of storage on it, the Register equipment that is configured for the described request choice of equipment.
Because described agent equipment has passed through configuration, can store the information that has the network application apparatus of Register ability in this equity WLAN (wireless local area network) on it, therefore, described agent equipment is after receiving the described request configuration messages, when information according to the Register equipment of storage on it, select a Register equipment arbitrarily, and the described request configuration messages is sent to the Register equipment of choosing.
During agent equipment was in the proxy configurations pattern, it can be transmitted to same Register equipment with the request configuration messages of a plurality of requesting services of receiving in during this period.
In addition, for the fail safe that guarantees to be configured between described request equipment and the Register equipment, after described step 201, as shown in Figure 3, the embodiment of the invention two described methods also can comprise:
Step 201a, described agent equipment are according to the described request configuration messages, for described request equipment generates device password.So this moment, in being transmitted to the request configuration messages of described Register equipment, the sign (ID) except comprising requesting service outside collocation method that is adopted and the configuration button formula collocation method, can also comprise described device password.
Certainly after this device password also can be generated by Register equipment, send to described agent equipment, then by described agent equipment with this device password and the described Register equipment mark of choosing (ID), Media Access Control Address information such as (MAC Address) sends to described request equipment together.
But because communicating by letter between agent equipment and the Register equipment maintained secrecy, and there is not corresponding confidentiality agreement between agent equipment and the requesting service, therefore, under normal conditions, adopt the mode that generates device password by described agent equipment more can guarantee the fail safe of disposing.Certainly, when generating check key,, can also adopt corresponding safety measure in order to improve the fail safe of configuration by Register equipment.For example, can carry out key agreement by agent equipment and requesting service, with the key that negotiates described device password be encrypted, the device password after will being encrypted by agent equipment then sends to described request equipment.
As shown in Figure 3, after step 202, the embodiment of the invention two described methods also can comprise:
Step 203, described agent equipment send request configuration response message to described request equipment, accept the configuring request of described request equipment.In described request configuration response message, comprise the described Register equipment mark of choosing (ID), Media Access Control Address (MAC Address), the information such as device password that described agent equipment generates or receives.
In order to economize on resources, described agent equipment can not be in the proxy configurations pattern always, and as shown in Figure 3, after described step 203, the embodiment of the invention two described methods also can comprise:
Step 204, agent equipment withdraw from the proxy configurations pattern according to detected proxy configurations pattern end signal.
The mode that detects proxy configurations pattern end signal can have following several: (1) is provided with timer on agent equipment, when timing then, withdraw from the proxy configurations pattern.For example, timing that can described timer is set to 30 seconds, and after the timing at 30 seconds arrived, described agent equipment withdrawed from the proxy configurations pattern automatically.(2) finish message according to the configuration that receives, withdraw from the proxy configurations pattern by described Register equipment transmission.Certainly, also can realize detecting proxy configurations pattern end signal, not enumerate one by one at this by other modes.
Corresponding with the embodiment of the invention two described methods, the embodiment of the invention three provides a kind of method that network application apparatus in the reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) is configured equally.
As shown in Figure 4, the method that three pairs of network application apparatus of the embodiment of the invention are configured comprises the steps:
Step 401, Register equipment receive the request configuration messages of the requesting service of being transmitted by agent equipment;
In this embodiment, the content that is comprised in the described request configuration messages is described identical with embodiment two, for example, can comprise requesting service ID, the collocation method that is adopted.
For the fail safe that guarantees to dispose, when generating device password, can also comprise information such as device password etc. by described agent equipment.
Step 402, described Register equipment are configured described request equipment according to the described request configuration messages.
As shown in Figure 5, when generating device password by Register equipment, after described step 401, also can comprise as if employing:
Step 401a, according to the described request configuration messages, generate device password, and described device password sent to described agent equipment; Send to described request equipment by described agent equipment then.
After generating or obtaining described device password, by described Register equipment described request equipment is configured, roughly can comprise the steps:
Step 4021, parsing described request configuration messages obtain described request equipment mark and/or device password;
Step 4022, utilize described device password that described request equipment is authenticated; When Register equipment obtains described device password, verify described device password;
Simultaneously, after requesting service receives device password, in accepting layoutprocedure, also to verify described device password.
Step 4023, after the authentication of described request equipment is passed through, described request equipment is configured.Concrete layoutprocedure is exactly to described request devices allocation resource, and the process of parameter is set, and this does not repeat them here with of the prior art identical.
After layoutprocedure finished, after described step 402, the embodiment of the invention three described methods also can comprise:
Step 403, send configuration to described agent equipment and finish message.
For making those skilled in the art more clearly obtain the implementation procedure of the embodiment of the invention two and three described methods, be described in detail below in conjunction with embodiment four.In this embodiment, adopt the mode that generates device password by agent equipment.
As shown in Figure 6, the described method of method that is configured of the network application apparatus in four pairs of reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) of the embodiment of the invention comprises:
Step 601, requesting service detect request configuration mode enabling signal.This is that user by requesting service presses the configuration button on this network application apparatus, and the mode that makes this equipment enter the request configuration mode realizes.Certainly, also can use other equivalent way trigger request equipment to enter the request configuration mode.It is afterwards also passable that this step occurs in step 603.That is to say that requesting service and agent equipment are pressed the order of configuration button and do not fixed.
Step 602, this requesting service will periodically outwards send probe request message, in this probe request message indication its be equipment to be configured, and comprise the information such as sign (ID), collocation method of this requesting service.Wherein the push button collocation method is adopted in the indication of collocation method information.
This probe request message is actually in the request configuration, and sends out in the mode of broadcasting.According to IEEE 802.11 agreements, the BSSID in the message (basic service set identification, the i.e. sign of WLAN) message segment is used the wildcard mode, does not promptly specify concrete network identity.Certainly, if the user of requesting service can specify concrete network to be added, also can specify concrete BSSID in this probe request message.But generally speaking, the user can not remove to specify a BSSID, because the target of WPS configuration as far as possible simply and not need be grasped professional knowledge with regard to the operation that is to use the family configuration device, thereby the button arrangement mode only needs the user can finish layoutprocedure by configuration button next time.Below this comprised the probe request message of asking configuration messages abbreviate the request configuration messages as.
If Register equipment arranged near this requesting service, then this Register equipment then can probe response message of loopback, provides institute's information requested of indicating in the ability information of this Register equipment and the probe request message in response message.And at described Register equipment not under the situation at configuration status, expression refusal request configuration messages in the probe response message of loopback.Method of automatic configuration when the embodiment of the invention solves registrar application equipment and can not directly accept request the register requirement of equipment.
Near the step 603, this requesting service agent equipment does not need this request configuration messages is made response, but but accept the equipment of configuring request as a proxy registrar, detect whether proxy configurations pattern triggering signal is arranged.
This proxy configurations pattern triggering signal equally also is that configuration button or other equivalent way that the user by this agent equipment presses on it realizes.When the user pressed configuration button, agent equipment entered the proxy configurations pattern.Here, needn't be in order to support the proxy configurations pattern, and add a configuration button to agent equipment, also be feasible method though a configuration button is set separately.Can on the basis of the configuration button of disposing that originally just has, realize that the proxy configurations pattern triggers function as WPS.For example, when the equipment of acting on behalf of has obtained configuration, and in the short time (for example 1 second), received and the request configuration messages of other requesting service then after pressing configuration button, entered the proxy configurations pattern.Also can adopt double press or for a long time (for example 3 seconds) press the mode that configuration button enters the proxy configurations pattern.
Step 604, after detecting proxy configurations pattern triggering signal, accept this request configuration messages and begin subsequent processes.
Step 605, described agent equipment are according to the described request configuration messages, for requesting service generates the verification that device password is used for the subsequent configuration process.This device password generates according to the regulation of WPS, can also can be the binary system lint-long integer of 16 bytes by 8 digital PIN code of forming.But this step is a selection operation, and the inventor thinks that agent equipment is that requesting service generates device password, help improving the fail safe of subsequent configuration process, but do not have this device password, layoutprocedure also can be finished more safely, and this is by the characteristic decision of push button collocation method.
Step 606, because agent equipment is the network application apparatus that has been arranged in described reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network), so store the information of all Register equipment of enabling in this equity WLAN (wireless local area network) on it.When the equipment of agency was in the proxy configurations pattern, it can select a Register equipment, and when receiving the request configuration messages, the described request configuration messages was sent to the Register equipment of choosing.The ID that in this request configuration messages, can comprise requesting service, the configuration mode that is adopted, information such as described device password.Here said configuration mode is meant the push button collocation method, when system supports the various configurations method, need use a field to show the collocation method of the desired employing of requesting service in the request configuration messages.Perhaps, agent equipment can send described request configuration messages and device password respectively by two message.
During the proxy configurations pattern, agent equipment is transmitted all accessible configuration request message of receiving to selected same Register equipment.
Step 607, after Register equipment is received the request configuration messages that agent equipment transmits, Register equipment just can switch to configuration mode.
If adopting agent equipment is the step that requesting service generates device password, then Register equipment should switch to configuration mode again after receiving device password.
Step 608, simultaneously, described agent equipment will send configuration response message to described request equipment, the configuring request of this requesting service is accepted in expression in this response message, and in this response message, include the mac address information that it selects the Register equipment of forwarding, and described device password etc.Or described device password is sent to requesting service by other reciprocal process.
Owing to do not set up cipher key relation between agent equipment and the requesting service, therefore will to send to the process of requesting service possible dangerous for the password that requesting service produces.But can take certain measure to improve fail safe between agent equipment and the requesting service, for example agent equipment reduction transmitting power sends response message to requesting service, this requires agent equipment and requesting service from must be closer, exactly because and the application scenarios requesting service that in fact the present invention is directed to is closer from agent equipment.
Perhaps, agent equipment also can adopt certain cryptographic key negotiation method to negotiate a key with requesting service, and with the described device password of the described secret key encryption that negotiates.
If agent equipment has display capabilities, and requesting service has input capability, can also the device password that generate be shown by agent equipment, and the user of requesting service will be input to the requesting service from the device password that the display screen of agent equipment is seen.
If agent equipment and requesting service all have band external tappings such as NFC, also can safely device password be delivered to requesting service from agent equipment by the band external tapping.Though the mode that adopts the user to input password or adopt out-band channel to transmit device password has improved the difficulty of using, and has increased the fail safe of layoutprocedure.
Adopt any mode to transmit between agent equipment and the requesting service into the interim device password that generates of requesting service, by reaching through consultation between them.According to 802.11 agreements, all carried the ability that network application apparatus had that sends message in probe request message and the probe response message, be not described in detail here.
Above agent equipment is that requesting service generates device password, and the process of carrying this device password in agent equipment is issued the configuration response message of requesting service is a kind of measure that increases the layoutprocedure fail safe, but not necessarily.
Step 609, the described request network equipment obtain the MAC Address of this Register agent equipment according to described configuration response message, and device password.As above a step is described, and the device password of requesting service also can obtain from agent equipment by other method.
Described request equipment after receiving the request response of described agent equipment, by step 610-step 623, carry out the layoutprocedure of the standard that defines in the WPS1.0h standard, finish and the Register of agent equipment appointment between layoutprocedure.
Step 610, described request equipment send EAPoL to Register equipment and begin message;
Step 611, described Register equipment send the EAP request message to requesting service, to its ID of described request device request;
Step 612, requesting service send to described Register equipment with its ID by the EAP response message;
Step 613, described Register equipment send the EAP request to described request equipment, carry the indication information that WPS begins, the beginning layoutprocedure;
Step 614-621, (M1~M8) finishes layoutprocedure to WPS by 8 message, wherein M1~M2 employing DH (Diffie-Hellman) dynamic key exchange algorithm negotiates one group of temporary key between requesting service and the Register equipment, be used for follow-up interactive messages is authenticated and significant data such as configuration data, certificate are encrypted, guarantee the fail safe of layoutprocedure; Wherein M1-M8 message is the standard message in the agreement, and its particular content does not repeat them here.
In the process of step 616 to 620, also need the device password of requesting service is verified.In the WPS1.0h technical specification, stipulate that for the collocation method of configuration button formula the device password of equipment to be configured is fixed as " 00000000 ", in fact this do not have the essence effect, only is in order to keep the consistency of agreement under any one collocation method.Can not utilize the device password of equipment to guarantee the reliability of layoutprocedure, this is the defective that configuration button formula collocation method can't overcome.In the embodiment of the invention, because layoutprocedure has been passed through an intermediate equipment, adopt configuration button formula collocation method can may cause the further reduction of layoutprocedure fail safe simply, therefore the suggestion employing is requesting service generation device password and the method that sends to Register equipment by agent equipment, assurance Register equipment is verified device password in the subsequent configuration process effectively, and security flaw only is retained in the process of agent equipment to requesting service transmission device password, make its fail safe reach identical with WPS1.0h or better effect.
Step 622, requesting service send the EAP response to described Register equipment, and the expression layoutprocedure is finished;
Step 623, described Register equipment send " EAP failure " message to described request equipment, it is meant and causes that requesting service carries out processes such as the authentication of network insertion needs, association again, and use the previous configuration information that obtains in new authentication, association process.
In the process that Register equipment is configured requesting service, seize the opportunity that swarming into tries to be the first and accept the configuration of Register equipment in order to prevent illegal network application apparatus, Register equipment should keep a period of time after entering configuration mode, just finish configuration mode then.
If previous acceptance configuration is an illegal network application apparatus, as long as guarantee that legal network application apparatus sends configuring request in official hour.Register equipment can find to have a plurality of requesting service requests configuration in the special time window, then Register equipment thinks that this situation is a mistake, has accepted the relevant information of the requesting service that disposes in this time period with stopping layoutprocedure or cancellation.So like this,, can not link in the reciprocity WLAN (wireless local area network) at Register equipment place, can make the push button collocation method safer like this even illegal network application apparatus has obtained configuration data because the configuration data of illegal network application apparatus is invalid.Same, requesting service is also set a time window, is registered to mistakenly on other network even the illegal Register preventing, is not described in detail here.
Behind step 624, the Register device end configuration mode, send configuration to agent equipment and finish message, notify its configuration mode that is through with.
Step 625, after receiving that the Register equipment disposition is finished message, agent equipment also finishes the proxy configurations pattern.As previously mentioned, agent equipment may be have finished the proxy configurations pattern automatically after the regular hour, receive the end configuration mode message of Register this moment after, as long as simply ignore this message.
So far, described Register equipment has been finished the layoutprocedure to requesting service.
