It should be understood that a device having a communication function in a network/system in an embodiment of the present application may be referred to as a communication device. Taking the communication system 100 shown in fig. 1 as an example, the communication device may include a network device 110 and a terminal device 120 with communication functions, where the network device 110 and the terminal device 120 may be specific devices described above, and are not described herein again; the communication device may also include other devices in the communication system 100, such as a network controller, a mobility management entity, and other network entities, which are not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

In addition, the character "/" herein generally indicates that the front and rear associated objects are an "or" relationship.

The method of the embodiment of the application can be applied to the communication system shown in fig. 1 and can also be applied to other communication scenes. For example, the method of the embodiment of the present application may be applied to a Mesh network, as shown in fig. 2, where 20 represents a BLE Mesh client device, and the BLE Mesh client device 20 may access and/or control a BLE Mesh server device through the Mesh network, where the BLE Mesh server device may specifically be a device that conforms to a BLE Mesh protocol, for example, a BLE Mesh socket, a BLE Mesh lamp device, and so on. In this embodiment, a BLE Mesh lamp device is taken as a BLE Mesh server device for example to perform schematic description. As shown in fig. 2, 21 and 22 represent BLE Mesh lamp devices, respectively, one BLE Mesh lamp device may include one or more elements, each of which may include one or more models (models).

For example, the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 may include an element 1, an element 2, and an element 3, where the element 1 may be a main element of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21, an address corresponding to the main element is denoted as addr1, and the addr1 may be an address of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 in the Mesh network. Element 2 and element 3 may be slaves of BLE lamp device 21, the address corresponding to element 2 may be denoted addr2, and the address corresponding to element 3 may be denoted addr3. Wherein, addr2 may be a fixed offset added to addr1, and addr3 may be two fixed offsets added to addr 1. In addition, each element of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 may further include one or more models, for example, element 1 includes a luminance model and a switching model, element 2 includes a switching model, and element 3 includes a color temperature model and a saturation model. The BLE Mesh client device 20 may access and/or control a model of the BLE Mesh light device 21.

Similarly, the BLE Mesh light device 22 may also include one or more elements, for example, the BLE Mesh light device 22 includes an element 1 and an element 2, where the element 1 is a main element of the BLE Mesh light device 22, an address corresponding to the main element is addr4, and the addr4 may be an address of the BLE Mesh light device 22 in the Mesh network. Element 2 of the BLE Mesh light device 22 is a slave element of the BLE Mesh light device 22, an address corresponding to element 2 of the BLE Mesh light device 22 is addr5, and addr5 may be a fixed offset added on the basis of addr 4. Similarly, the BLE Mesh client device 20 may access and/or control the model of the BLE Mesh light device 22.

In order to enable BLE Mesh server devices to be accessed and/or controlled by more types of client devices, the network architecture shown in fig. 2 may be extended by network devices supporting multiple protocols. As shown in fig. 3, the terminal device 30 is an OCF client device, that is, the terminal device 30 is a device supporting the OCF protocol. The network device 31 is a device supporting the OCF protocol and the BLE Mesh protocol, and the network device 31 may specifically be a bridge device, and in addition, the network device 31 may be a non-access network device. The communication protocol between the network device 31 and the terminal device 30 is an OCF protocol, the communication protocol between the network device 31 and the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 is a BLE Mesh protocol, and the communication protocol between the network device 31 and the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 is a BLE Mesh protocol. That is, the network device 31 may translate the data packet of the OCF protocol into the data packet of the BLE Mesh protocol, or translate the data packet of the BLE Mesh protocol into the data packet of the OCF protocol.

Specifically, an Application (APP) may be installed on the terminal device 30, the terminal device 30 may generate an access and/or control request conforming to the OCF protocol according to an access and/or control operation performed by a user on the APP, and send the access and/or control request of the OCF protocol to the network device 31, and the network device 31 may translate the access and/or control request of the OCF protocol into an access and/or control request conforming to the BLE Mesh protocol, and perform access and/or control on the model of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 or the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 according to the translated access and/or control request. However, only one model of one BLE Mesh lamp device can be accessed and/or controlled by a user through one access and/or control operation, which may result in a lower efficiency of the terminal device 30 accessing and/or controlling the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 or the BLE Mesh lamp device 22, i.e. a lower efficiency of the OCF client device accessing and/or controlling the BLE Mesh server device. In order to solve the problem, the present embodiment provides an access control method for a BLE Mesh device, and the access control method for the BLE Mesh device is described below in connection with a specific embodiment.

Fig. 4 is a communication system to which the access control method of a BLE Mesh device provided in the present application is applicable. The communication system includes an OCF client device (e.g., terminal device 30), a network device (e.g., network device 31) supporting both the OCF protocol and the BLE Mesh protocol, and a plurality of BLE Mesh devices (e.g., BLE Mesh light device 21 and BLE Mesh light device 22), specifically, BLE Mesh server devices as described above. Specifically, the BLE Mesh light device 21 may be denoted as a first BLE Mesh device, and the BLE Mesh light device 22 may be denoted as a second BLE Mesh device. The first BLE Mesh device may be a BLE Mesh device that is currently accessed and/or controlled by the user. The number of the second BLE Mesh devices may be one or more, and is schematically illustrated here by taking one example.

Specifically, the network device 31 may actively discover surrounding BLE Mesh devices, for example, when the network device 31 discovers the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the BLE Mesh lamp device 22, the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 may send the elements and the models respectively included in the respective BLE Mesh lamp device to the network device 31, and the network device 31 may divide the models of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and/or the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 to obtain a plurality of model groups.

In particular, the network device 31 may divide the same model of different BLE Mesh lamp devices into one model group. For example, the saturation model of element 3 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the saturation model of element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 are divided into model group 1, the switching model of element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21, the switching model of element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22, and the switching model of element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 are divided into model group 2, and the luminance model of element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the luminance model of element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 are divided into model group 3.

In addition, the network device 31 may divide a plurality of models of the same BLE Mesh lamp device into one model group. Specifically, the network device 31 may divide multiple models of the same element of the same BLE Mesh lamp device into one model group, or may divide multiple models of different elements of the same BLE Mesh lamp device into one model group. For example, the on-off model of the element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the color temperature model of the element 3 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 are divided into model groups 4.

Furthermore, the network device 31 may divide different models of different BLE Mesh lamp devices into one model group. For example, the color temperature model of the element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the saturation model of the element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 are divided into model groups 5.

It will be appreciated that the terminal device 30 may also divide the models of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and/or the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 to obtain a plurality of model groups. Specifically, when the network device 31 discovers the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the BLE Mesh lamp device 22, the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 may send the elements and the models respectively included in the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 to the network device 31, and the network device 31 further sends the elements and the models respectively included in the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 to the terminal device 30, and since the BLE Mesh lamp device is a device conforming to the BLE Mesh protocol, the terminal device 30 is a device conforming to the OCF protocol, and therefore, the elements are concepts in the BLE Mesh protocol, and the elements correspond to the concepts of the resources in the terminal device 30. The terminal device 30 may display the elements and the model included in each of the BLE Mesh light device 21 and the BLE Mesh light device 22 on the APP, as shown in fig. 5. Wherein element 1 in the BLE Mesh lamp device corresponds to resource 1 displayed by the terminal device 30, element 2 in the BLE Mesh lamp device corresponds to resource 2 displayed by the terminal device 30, element 3 in the BLE Mesh lamp device corresponds to resource 3 displayed by the terminal device 30, and so on. 51 represents an icon corresponding to the BLE Mesh light device 21, and 52 represents an icon corresponding to the BLE Mesh light device 22. The user can divide the saturation model of the element 3 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the saturation model of the element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 into one model group by continuously clicking the saturation icon of the resource 3 corresponding to the icon 51 and the saturation icon of the resource 1 corresponding to the icon 52. Specifically, after the user continuously clicks the saturation icon of the resource 3 corresponding to the icon 51 and the saturation icon of the resource 1 corresponding to the icon 52, the terminal device 30 generates a model group division instruction according to the clicking operation of the user, and sends the model group division instruction to the network device 31, where the model group division instruction may include identification information of the saturation icon of the resource 3 corresponding to the icon 51 and identification information of the saturation icon of the resource 1 corresponding to the icon 52, and further, the network device 31 divides the saturation model of the element 3 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the saturation model of the element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 into a model group according to the model group division instruction, where the model group may be denoted as a model group 1. Other model sets, such as model set 2, model set 3, model set 4, and model set 5, are similar to each other, and will not be described in detail herein.

Further, the network device 31 may also assign a group address to each model group. Specifically, the correspondence relationship among the respective model groups, the models included in each model group, and the group addresses of each model group as described above is shown in table 1 below.

TABLE 1

In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, one model group corresponds to one OCF resource. One model corresponds to one OCF resource type. When a plurality of models in a model group are identical, the resource type of the OCF resource corresponding to the model group may be the OCF resource type corresponding to any one of the plurality of identical models. When a plurality of models in a model group are different, the resource type of the OCF resource corresponding to the model group is a set of OCF resource types respectively corresponding to the different models.

For example, OCF resource types respectively corresponding to the several models described above are shown in table 2 below.

TABLE 2

Model	OCF resource type
		Brightness model	Brightness of light
Switch model	Switch
		Color temperature model	Color temperature
Saturation model	Saturation level

Wherein, the switch in the OCF resource type shown in table 2 may be a 01 switch, for example, 1 may represent on, 0 represents off, or 0 represents on, and 1 represents off.

In addition, the network device 31 may also establish a mapping relationship between the group address corresponding to each model group and the identification information of the OCF resource corresponding to the model group. The identification information of the OCF resource may specifically be a uniform resource identifier (Uniform Resource Identifier, URI) of the OCF resource. The URI of the OCF resource may include a group address of a model group corresponding to the OCF resource. Specifically, the mapping relationships among the group addresses corresponding to the model groups, the URIs of the OCF resources corresponding to the model groups, and the resource types of the OCF resources corresponding to the model groups are shown in the following table 3:

TABLE 3 Table 3

Taking model group 1 as an example, the group address of model group 1 is XXX1, and the URI of the OCF resource corresponding to model group 1 is/XXX 1/XXXXXX 1, wherein XXX1 is the group address of model group 1. In addition, the URI of the OCF resource may also include identification information for model group 1, e.g., XXXX1. Since model group 1 includes the saturation model of element 3 of BLE Mesh lamp apparatus 21 and the saturation model of element 1 of BLE Mesh lamp apparatus 22, that is, model group 1 includes a plurality of identical models, it can be seen from table 2 that the resource type of the OCF resource corresponding to model group 1 is the same OCF resource type, i.e., saturation, corresponding to the plurality of identical models.

Taking model group 4 as an example, the group address of model group 4 is XXX4, and the URI of the OCF resource corresponding to model group 4 is/XXX 4, that is, the URI of the OCF resource corresponding to model group 4 may include only the group address XXX4 of model group 4, and not the identification information of model group 4. Since the model set 4 includes the on-off model of the element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the color temperature model of the element 3 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21, that is, the model set 4 includes a plurality of different models, the resource types of the OCF resources corresponding to the model set 4 are the sets of the OCF resource types respectively corresponding to the plurality of different models, that is, the on-off and the color temperature. Wherein the switch corresponds to the switch model of element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the color temperature corresponds to the color temperature model of element 3 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21.

It is understood that the correspondence relationships as described in table 1, table 2, table 3 may be stored in the network device 31 or may be stored in the terminal device 30.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, since the network device 31 may support the OCF protocol and the BLE Mesh protocol at the same time, the network device 31 is a server device supporting the OCF protocol for the terminal device 30. For BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and BLE Mesh lamp device 22, network device 31 is a client device supporting the BLE Mesh protocol. Thus, the network device 31 may internally include a server supporting the OCF protocol and a client supporting the BLE Mesh protocol. The network device 31 may specifically be a bridge platform as shown in fig. 6, which may specifically be a bridge platform between the OCF protocol and the BLE Mesh protocol. As shown in fig. 6, the Bridge platform includes a Bridge module (Bridge), a virtual open connection foundation server (Virtual OCF Server), a bluetooth low energy Bridge function module (BLE Bridging Function), and a virtual bluetooth low energy grid client (Virtual BLE Mesh Client). Virtual OCF Server may communicate with an open connection foundation Client (OCF Client), which may specifically be the end device 30 as described above, via an OCF protocol. Virtual BLE Mesh Client may communicate with a bluetooth low energy Mesh Server (BLE Mesh Server), which may specifically be a BLE Mesh light device 21 and a BLE Mesh light device 22 as described above, via a BLE Mesh protocol.

The following describes a specific process for establishing a mapping relationship between a group address corresponding to each model group in the plurality of model groups and identification information of OCF resources corresponding to the model group by using the network device 31 in conjunction with a specific embodiment. As shown in fig. 7, the process specifically includes the following steps:

s701, the virtual Bluetooth low energy grid client discovers a Bluetooth low energy grid server 1 and a Bluetooth low energy grid server 2.

Specifically, the bluetooth low energy Mesh server 1 may be a BLE Mesh lamp device 21 as described above, and the bluetooth low energy Mesh server 2 may be a BLE Mesh lamp device 22 as described above.

S702, the virtual Bluetooth low energy grid client marks a Bluetooth low energy grid server 1 as a Node1, and marks a Bluetooth low energy grid server 2 as a Node2.

For example, when the BLE Mesh light device 21 is discovered by a virtual bluetooth low energy Mesh client, the BLE Mesh light device 21 is noted as Node1. When the BLE Mesh light device 22 is discovered by the virtual bluetooth low energy Mesh client, the BLE Mesh light device 22 is denoted as Node2.

S703, the virtual bluetooth low energy grid client determines the model in Node1 and Node2 that needs to be accessed and/or controlled.

For example, the BLE Mesh light device 21 and the BLE Mesh light device 22 each include a plurality of models, however, some of the plurality of models need to be accessed and/or controlled, and some of the models may not need to be accessed and/or controlled. Therefore, after the virtual bluetooth low energy Mesh client discovers the BLE Mesh light device 21 and the BLE Mesh light device 22, it is further necessary to determine a model that needs to be accessed and/or controlled in the BLE Mesh light device 21 and the BLE Mesh light device 22. For example, the model that the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 needs to be accessed and/or controlled is a model in which element 1, element 2, and element 3 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 respectively correspond as shown in fig. 4. The model of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 that needs to be accessed and/or controlled is a model corresponding to element 1 and element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 as shown in fig. 4.

S704, the virtual Bluetooth low-power grid client groups the models which need to be accessed and/or controlled in the Node1 and the Node2 to obtain a plurality of model groups.

The specific grouping process is described in the above embodiments, and is not described herein. The plurality of model sets may be specifically 5 model sets as shown in fig. 4.

S705, the virtual bluetooth low energy grid client assigns a group address and a group model client to each model group.

The virtual bluetooth low energy grid client assigns a group address to each model group, and the correspondence between each model group and the group address is shown in table 1 above. The group model clients assigned by the virtual bluetooth low energy grid client to each model group are specifically shown in table 4 below. That is, the group model client may be created by a virtual bluetooth low energy grid client, and thus, the virtual bluetooth low energy grid client may include the group model client.

TABLE 4 Table 4

Model group	Group model client
		Model group 1	Group Model Client1
Model group 2	Group Model Client2
		Model group 3	Group Model Client3
Model group 4	Group Model Client4
		Model group 5	Group Model Client5

S706, the virtual Bluetooth low energy grid client sends a notification message to the Bluetooth low energy bridging function module, wherein the notification message is used for notifying that Node1 and Node2 are successfully created.

And S707, the Bluetooth low-power-consumption bridging function module stores the related information of the Node1 and the Node2 into an OCF equipment list to be created.

The relevant information of Node1 is relevant information of BLE Mesh lamp device 21, and the relevant information of Node2 is relevant information of BLE Mesh lamp device 22.

And S708, the Bluetooth low energy bridging function module sends a notification message to the virtual open connection foundation server, wherein the notification message is used for requesting to create the OCF equipment.

S709, the virtual open connection foundation server creates OCF equipment 1 corresponding to Node1 and OCF equipment 2 corresponding to Node2 according to the to-be-created OCF equipment list.

Specifically, after the virtual open connection foundation server creates the OCF device 1 and the OCF device 2, the identification information of the OCF device 1 and the identification information of the OCF device 2 are generated.

And S710, the virtual open connection foundation server side sends a message of successful creation of the OCF equipment to the Bluetooth low-power bridging function module.

S711, the Bluetooth low-power-consumption bridging function module establishes a corresponding relation between the identification information of the OCF equipment 1 and the Node1, and a corresponding relation between the identification information of the OCF equipment 2 and the Node 2.

Since Node1 corresponds to BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and Node2 corresponds to BLE Mesh lamp device 22, bluetooth low energy bridging function module may also establish a correspondence between identification information of OCF device 1 and BLE Mesh lamp device 21, and a correspondence between identification information of OCF device 2 and BLE Mesh lamp device 22.

S712, the Bluetooth low energy bridging function module establishes a mapping relation between a group address corresponding to each model group in the plurality of model groups and URIs of OCF resources corresponding to the model groups.

The mapping relationship between the group address corresponding to each model group and the URI of the OCF resource corresponding to the model group is specifically shown in table 3.

S713, the Bluetooth low energy bridging function module establishes a mapping relation between each model group in the plurality of model groups and the resource type of the OCF resource.

Wherein the mapping relationship between each model group and the resource type of the OCF resource is specifically shown in the above table 3.

It can be understood that, since the OCF device 1 and the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 correspond, the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 corresponds to the model group 1, the model group 2, the model group 3, the model group 4, and the model group 5, and therefore, the OCF resources of the OCF device 1 include the OCF resources respectively corresponding to the model group 1, the model group 2, the model group 3, the model group 4, and the model group 5.

Since the OCF device 2 and the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 correspond, the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 corresponds to the model group 1, the model group 2, the model group 3, and the model group 5, and therefore, the OCF resources of the OCF device 2 include the OCF resources respectively corresponding to the model group 1, the model group 2, the model group 3, and the model group 5.

Taking model set 1 as an example, since two saturation models in model set 1 are located in BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and BLE Mesh lamp device 22, respectively, OCF resources corresponding to model set 1 exist in OCF device 1 corresponding to BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and OCF device 2 corresponding to BLE Mesh lamp device 22 at the same time. That is, the OCF resource of the OCF device 1 corresponding to the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the OCF resource of the OCF device 2 corresponding to the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 each include the OCF resource corresponding to the model group 1. At this time, the terminal device 30 may access and/or control the OCF resource corresponding to the model group 1 through any one of the OCF devices 1 and 2.

Taking model set 4 as an example, since both models in model set 4 are located in BLE Mesh lamp device 21. Therefore, the OCF resource corresponding to the model group 4 exists in the OCF device 1 corresponding to the BLE Mesh lamp device 21, and is not in the OCF device 2 corresponding to the BLE Mesh lamp device 22. That is, the OCF resources of the OCF device 1 corresponding to the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 include the OCF resources corresponding to the model group 4, and the OCF resources of the OCF device 2 corresponding to the BLE Mesh lamp device 22 do not include the OCF resources corresponding to the model group 4. At this time, the terminal device 30 may access and/or control the OCF resource corresponding to the model group 4 through the OCF device 1. The process by which the terminal device 30 accesses and/or controls OCF resources is described in detail below in connection with particular embodiments.

Fig. 8 is a flowchart of an access control method of a BLE Mesh device provided in the present application. The access control method of the BLE Mesh device may be applied to a communication system as shown in fig. 4. As shown in fig. 8, the access control method of the BLE Mesh device includes the following steps:

s801, receiving an access and/or control request of a terminal device to a first BLE Mesh device, wherein the access and/or control request comprises identification information of an OCF resource and a resource type of the OCF resource.

Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the first BLE Mesh device may specifically be a BLE Mesh lamp device 21 as described above, and the second BLE Mesh device may specifically be a BLE Mesh lamp device 22 as described above. The first BLE Mesh device may be a BLE Mesh device that is currently accessed and/or controlled by the user. The number of the second BLE Mesh devices may be one or more, and is schematically illustrated here by taking one example.

As shown in fig. 9, an icon 51 corresponding to the BLE Mesh light device 21 and an icon 52 corresponding to the BLE Mesh light device 22 are displayed on the user interface of the terminal device 30. In addition, the user interface also displays icons of resources corresponding to the respective elements of the BLE Mesh light device 21 and the BLE Mesh light device 22, and icons of models corresponding to the respective elements. The user may access and/or control the model of the BLE Mesh light device 21 and/or the BLE Mesh light device 22 through the user interface.

For example, the user may access the current state of the switch model of element 1 of the BLE Mesh light device 21, which may be displayed in the dialog 53, by clicking on the switch icon 91 of resource 1 corresponding to icon 51. Alternatively, the user may input the current state of the switch icon 91 of the resource 1 corresponding to the icon 51 in the dialog box 53, thereby controlling the switch model of the element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21.

For another example, the user may access the current state of the switch model of element 2 of BLE Mesh light device 21 by clicking on switch icon 92 of resource 2 corresponding to icon 51, which may be displayed in dialog box 54. Alternatively, the user may input the current state of the switch icon 92 of the resource 2 corresponding to the icon 51 in the dialog box 54, thereby controlling the switch model of the element 2 of the BLE Mesh light device 21.

It will be appreciated that the manner of displaying the current state of the model of the BLE Mesh light device 21 or the BLE Mesh light device 22 on the user interface of the terminal device 30 is not limited to being displayed in a dialog box as shown in fig. 9, and may be, for example, a display manner as shown in fig. 10. In addition, the setting manner of the model of the BLE Mesh light device 21 or the BLE Mesh light device 22 by the user is not limited to the manner of inputting information in the dialog box as shown in fig. 9, and for example, may be the manner as shown in fig. 10, for example, the current state of the switch model is controlled by sliding the switch key; the current color temperature or brightness value is set by sliding the sliding bar corresponding to the color temperature or brightness.

The terminal device 30 generates an access and/or control request according to an operation of a user on the user interface, where the access and/or control request may include a URI of an OCF resource corresponding to a model group to which a model of the user access and/or control belongs and a resource type of the OCF resource.

Specifically, the terminal device 30 may store the correspondence relationships of the above tables 1 and 3, or the network device 31 may transmit the correspondence relationships of the above tables 1 and 3 to the terminal device 30. When the user accesses the switch model of element 1 of the BLE Mesh light device 21 and/or sets the switch model of element 1 of the BLE Mesh light device 21, a model group to which the switch model of element 1 of the BLE Mesh light device 21 belongs, for example, model group 4, is determined according to the correspondence described in table 1, and further, the URI (for example, XXX 4) of the OCF resource and the resource type (for example, switch, color temperature) of the OCF resource corresponding to the model group 4 are determined according to the correspondence described in table 3. Accordingly, the access and/or control request may include/XXX 4, switch and color temperature.

Or, when the user accesses the switching model of the element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and/or sets the switching model of the element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21, a model group to which the switching model of the element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 belongs, for example, the model group 2, is determined according to the correspondence described in table 1, and further, according to the correspondence described in table 3, the URI (for example/XXX 2/XXXX 2) of the OCF resource corresponding to the model group 2 and the resource type (for example, switch) of the OCF resource are determined. Accordingly, the access and/or control request may include/XXX 2/XXXX2 and a switch.

Further, the terminal device 30 transmits the access and/or control request to the network device 31, and accordingly, the network device 31 receives the access and/or control request.

S802, determining a model group corresponding to the OCF resource according to the identification information of the OCF resource and the resource type of the OCF resource, wherein the model group comprises a plurality of models.

For example, when the access and/or control request received by the network device 31 includes/XXX 4, a switch, and a color temperature, the network device 31 may determine, according to/XXX 4, the switch, and the color temperature, a model group corresponding to the OCF resource as a model group 4, where the model group 4 includes a switch model of the element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and a color temperature model of the element 3 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21.

Alternatively, when the access and/or control request received by the network device 31 includes/XXX 2/XXXX2 and a switch, the network device 31 may determine, according to/XXX 2/XXXX2 and the switch, that the model group corresponding to the OCF resource is a model group 2, where the model group 2 includes a switching model of element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21, a switching model of element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22, and a switching model of element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22.

S803 accessing and/or controlling the plurality of models.

For example, when the model set is model set 4, the network device 31 accesses and/or controls the switching model of element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21 and the color temperature model of element 3 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21. That is, the user performs one access and/or control operation on the switching model of the element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp apparatus 21, so that the network apparatus 31 simultaneously accesses and/or controls the switching model of the element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp apparatus 21 and the color temperature model of the element 3 of the BLE Mesh lamp apparatus 21. That is, since the model group 4 includes a plurality of models of the same BLE Mesh lamp device, access and/or control of a plurality of models of the same BLE Mesh lamp device can be achieved by a user accessing and/or controlling any model of the model group 4.

For another example, when the model set is model set 2, network device 31 accesses and/or controls the switching model of element 2 of BLE Mesh light device 21, the switching model of element 1 of BLE Mesh light device 22, the switching model of element 2 of BLE Mesh light device 22. That is, the user performs one access and/or control operation on the switching pattern of the element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21, so that the network device 31 simultaneously accesses and/or controls the switching pattern of the element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21, the switching pattern of the element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22, and the switching pattern of the element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22. That is, since the model group 2 includes the same model of a plurality of BLE Mesh lamp devices, access and/or control of the same model of the plurality of BLE Mesh lamp devices can be achieved by a user accessing and/or controlling any model in the model group 2.

According to the access control method for the BLE Mesh device, the network device receives the access and/or control request of the terminal device to the first BLE Mesh device, the network device can determine the model group corresponding to the OCF resource according to the identification information of the OCF resource and the resource type of the OCF resource included in the access and/or control request, and access and/or control a plurality of models included in the model group, that is, a user performs one-time access and/or control operation on a certain model of the first BLE Mesh device, so that the network device can access and/or control a plurality of models in the model group to which the model belongs, and compared with the one-time access and/or control operation of the user, only one model can be accessed and/or controlled, and the efficiency of accessing and/or controlling the BLE Mesh device by the terminal device is improved.

The model set 2 comprises a switching model of element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 21, a switching model of element 1 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22, a switching model of element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp device 22.

S1108, the Bluetooth low energy bridging function module determines a group model client according to the model group.

The process of a terminal device accessing different models of different BLE Mesh lamp devices through a network device is described in connection with a specific embodiment. As shown in fig. 12, the process includes the following steps:

S1201, the terminal equipment and the virtual open connection foundation server perform security authentication.

For example, as shown in fig. 9, the user may click on the color temperature icon 93 of the resource 1 corresponding to the icon 51, and access the current state of the color temperature model of the element 1 of the BLE Mesh light device 21.

Since the icon 51 corresponds to the BLE Mesh light device 21, and the BLE Mesh light device 21 corresponds to the OCF device 1 described above, the terminal device determines that the user accesses the OCF device 1 according to the click operation of the color temperature icon 93 of the resource 1 corresponding to the icon 51 by the user, and since the OCF device 1 is created by the virtual open connection foundation server, the terminal device performs security authentication with the OCF device 1 created by the virtual open connection foundation server.

For example, as shown in fig. 10, the switch icon 101 of the resource 2 corresponding to the icon 51 is currently in an on state, and the user can control the switch icon 101 of the resource 2 corresponding to the icon 51 to be turned off by sliding the switch button 102 corresponding to the switch icon 101. Since the icon 51 corresponds to the BLE Mesh light device 21, the BLE Mesh light device 21 corresponds to the OCF device 1 described above, and therefore, the terminal device determines that the user controls the OCF device 1 according to the sliding operation of the switch key 102 by the user, and since the OCF device 1 is created by the virtual open connection foundation server, the terminal device performs security authentication with the OCF device 1 created by the virtual open connection foundation server.

S1302, the virtual open connection foundation server sends URIs of OCF resources corresponding to each model group in the plurality of model groups and resource types of the OCF resources corresponding to the model groups to the terminal equipment.

S1303, the terminal equipment sends a setting request to the virtual open connection foundation server, wherein the setting request comprises/XXX 2/XXXX2 and a switch.

Specifically, the setting request is for setting the switching pattern of element 2 of the BLE Mesh lamp apparatus 21 to be off.

For example, the setting request may be expressed as:

SET“/XXX2/XXXX2”,

payload＝{“value”:false}

because the OCF resource types of each model in the model group 2 corresponding to the group address XXX2 are the same and are all switches, each model can be set once without setting each model separately.

S1304, the virtual open connection foundation server analyzes the identification information of the OCF equipment set by the user.

For example, the virtual open connection foundation server analyzes the identification information of the OCF device set by the user as the identification information of the OCF device 1. The identification information of the OCF Device 1 may be a Device identification (Device Index) of the OCF Device 1.

S1305, the virtual open connection foundation server obtains the group address (XXX 2) and the resource type (switch) of the OCF resource from the setting request.

S1306, the virtual open connection foundation service end sends identification information, a group address and a resource type of OCF resources of the OCF equipment to the Bluetooth low-power-consumption bridging function module.

S1307, the Bluetooth low-power-consumption bridging function module determines a model group according to the group address and the resource type of the OCF resource.

S1308, the Bluetooth low energy bridging function module determines a group model client according to the model group.
