Specifically, in 110, the Beacon message received by the terminal may be a Beacon frame signal sent by the access point. The first Application may be an Application program (APP) installed on the terminal, for example: other applications such as QQ, WeChat, whatsapp, line, twitter, facebook, etc. The first identification may be a unique identification of a specified application name applied to the first application.

In the embodiment of the invention, the terminal receives at least one beacon message transmitted by one or more access points. Each beacon message carries an identification of a specified application name that can be applied to the first application. Each beacon message may have a one-to-one correspondence with the access point that transmitted the beacon message.

In 120, each of the at least one beacon message may include an identification specifying an application name. The terminal acquires the identifier of the specified application name from each beacon message.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the beacon message includes an extension field, and the acquiring, by the terminal, the identifier of the at least one specified application name according to the at least one beacon message specifically includes:

and the terminal analyzes the extension field of each beacon message in at least one beacon message and acquires the identifier of the appointed application name in each beacon message.

Specifically, in the implementation of the present invention, the Beacon message includes an extension field, and in the case where the Beacon message is a Beacon frame signal, as shown in fig. 2, the extension field is an end field of each Beacon frame signal, a method for carrying an identifier of a specified application name in the Beacon frame signal may be to add a vector specific element at the end of the Beacon frame signal, where the identifier of the specified application name may be carried in the end field of the vector specific element, and the terminal parses the end field of the vector specific element in each Beacon frame signal, so as to obtain the identifier of the specified application name in each Beacon frame signal.

It should be understood that the identifier specifying the application name may also be carried in the first field of the extension field in each Beacon frame signal, or carried outside the extension field of the Beacon frame signal, and is not limited in this invention.

It should also be understood that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the Beacon message is taken as an example of a Beacon frame signal, which is only for illustrating the technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention, but does not limit the technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention.

It should also be understood that the beacon message may also include signal strength information of the beacon message and an identification of the access point, which is not limited in any way in the embodiments of the present invention.

In 130, the identifier of the historical binding is an identifier of a designated application name, which is a network connection identifier in which the terminal and the designated application name are stored before the terminal connects to the network at the current time, and records the corresponding designated application name of the designated application name. It can also be said that the terminal "focuses on" the designated application name corresponding to the identifier of the designated application name. The identification of the historical binding may be an identification of one or more specified application names.

In the embodiment of the invention, the terminal judges whether the identifiers of the one or more specified application names of the historical binding comprise the identifiers of the one or more specified application names in at least one identifier of the specified application name acquired by the terminal.

In 140, when some or all of the historically bound identifiers of the specified application names include one or more of the identifiers of the specified application names acquired by the terminal, the terminal connects to the network according to the identifier of one of the specified applications.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the terminal may receive a determination instruction input by the user, where the determination instruction is used to instruct the terminal to connect to the network through the identifier of the specified application name corresponding to the specified application name determined by the user.

Optionally, as another embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, when the identifier of the historical binding in the first application includes at least one first identifier, the connecting, by the terminal, to the network through the first identifier includes:

1410, when the identifier of the historical binding in the first application only includes one first identifier, the terminal prompts a designated application name corresponding to the first identifier on a first interface, so that the user determines to connect to the network through the first identifier corresponding to the designated application name according to the designated application name.

Specifically, when the terminal receives a beacon message or acquires a first identifier from the received beacon message, that is, acquires an identifier of a specific application name, and the identifier of one or more specific application names bound in the history includes the identifier of the specific application name, the terminal prompts the specific application name corresponding to the identifier of the specific application name, so that the user can determine whether to connect to the network through the identifier of the specific application name.

In step 1410, the first interface may be an interface for connecting to a network in the first application. When the terminal determines that the identifier of the designated application name bound in the history includes the acquired identifier of the designated application name, the terminal prompts the designated application name corresponding to the identifier of the designated application name on an interface connected with the network in the first application, so that a user can determine whether to connect the network through the identifier of the designated application name corresponding to the designated application name or not according to the prompted designated application name.

And when the terminal receives a confirmation instruction which is input by the user and is connected with the network through the identifier of the specified application name, the terminal is connected with the network according to the identifier of the specified application name.

It should be understood that, in the implementation of the present invention, the terminal may also receive a confirmation instruction that is input by the user and is not connected to the network through the identifier of the specified application name, and when the terminal receives the confirmation instruction, the terminal exits from the network connection interface and does not perform network connection.

In the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 4, the terminal prompts the user to connect to the network through mcdonald's duty on the interface of the first application for connecting to the network. And when the terminal receives a determination instruction which is input by the user and is connected with the network through the McDonald's mark, the terminal is connected with the network through the McDonald's mark.

It should be further understood that, in the embodiment of the present invention, when the terminal prompts to specify an application name on the interface of the first specified application, content information related to the specified application name may also be prompted, for example: what type of content is published on a specified application name. This is not a limitation in the present invention.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the terminal may query the designated application name corresponding to the identifier of the designated application name through a relationship table of the correspondence between the identifier of the designated application name and the designated application name. For example, table 1 is a relationship table of correspondence between the identification of a specified application name and the specified application name. The identification for specifying the application name comprises an identification 1 and an identification 2, and the specified application names corresponding to the identification 1 and the identification 2 for specifying the application name are McDonald's and Boss men's clothing respectively.

Optionally, as another embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, the method 100 further includes:

1420, when the identifier of the historical binding in the first application does not include the first identifier, the terminal prompts the designated application name corresponding to the identifier of the designated application name on a second interface, so that the user can determine the network connected through the identifier of the designated application name corresponding to the designated application name according to the designated application name.

Specifically, the second interface is a system interface of the terminal. When the identification of the appointed application name acquired from the beacon message is not included in the identification of one or more appointed application names in the historical binding, the terminal prompts the appointed application name corresponding to the identification of the appointed application name on a system interface, prompts whether the binding relationship between the terminal and the identification of the appointed application name is added or not, and records the appointed application name so that a user can determine whether to connect a network according to the identification of the appointed application name corresponding to the appointed application name or not.

When the terminal receives a determination instruction which is input by a user and is connected with the network through the identifier of the appointed application name, namely the terminal receives the binding relationship which is input by the user and is added with the identifier of the appointed application name, and the identifier of the appointed application name is recorded, the network is determined to be connected through the identifier of the appointed application name; and when the terminal receives a cancel instruction which is input by the user and is connected with the network through the identifier of the appointed application name, the terminal cancels the prompt and does not carry out network connection.

As shown in fig. 5, the terminal prompts whether to pay attention to mcdonald's duty to connect to the network on the system interface. In the embodiment of the present invention, the "paying attention" may include that the terminal records the binding relationship between mcdonald's dutch and the terminal, and records mcdonald's dutch. When the terminal receives a determination key that the user clicks ' yes ', the terminal is connected with the network through the McDonald's mark; and when the terminal receives the confirmation key of no clicked by the user, the terminal exits the interface and is not connected with the network.
