Method for establishing or cancelling a service connection between a wireless local area network and a user terminal

Abstract

A method for processing the service connection between a user terminal and a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) applicable to a WLAN interactive network that at least comprises: a WLAN user terminal, a WLAN access unit, a service control unit and a user information storage unit. The method comprises: setting flags that represent the attached or detached status of the service connection between the user terminal and the WLAN in the WLAN user terminal and the service control unit respectively; establishing or canceling the connection between the user terminal and the network through the interaction between the WLAN user terminal and the WLAN, meanwhile modifying the corresponding flags. The method can clarify the service connection status of the current WLAN user terminal so as to implement effective interaction and control between the WLAN user terminal and the service control unit, keep the user information in the user information storage unit and service control unit consistent, avoid redundant messages, and further improve the working efficiency of the system.
