The accompanying drawings in the following description show merely some embodiments of the present disclosure, and a person of ordinary skill in the art may still derive other drawings from these accompanying drawings without creative efforts.
FIG. 1 is a schematic flowchart of a first embodiment of a network configuration method according to the present disclosure;
FIG. 2 is a schematic flowchart of a second embodiment of a network configuration method according to the present disclosure;
The following clearly and completely describes the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. The described embodiments are merely some but not all of the embodiments of the present disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
Refer to FIG. 1, which is a schematic flowchart of a first embodiment of a network configuration method according to the present disclosure. The method includes the following steps.
Step S100: Acquire a public key operation value of a second device in an out-of-band manner, where the public key operation value of the second device is a result obtained by performing an operation of a preset algorithm on a public key that is used by the second device to perform key exchange.
