Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are provided for binding a device and a terminal. In the method, the terminal acquires a binding password from a smart home device in a local area network. The terminal transmits a binding request for binding with the smart home device to the server, where the binding request includes a binding password and a user login Identifier (ID). A binding relationship between the user login ID and the smart home device is established by the server when the binding password in the binding request matches with a binding password stored in a server.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- acquiring, by a terminal, a binding password from a smart home device in a local area network;
- transmitting, by the terminal, a binding request for binding with the smart home device to a server, wherein the binding request comprises the binding password and a user login Identifier (ID), such that the server establishes a binding relationship between the user login ID and the smart home device when the binding password in the binding request matches with a stored password in a server.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored therein instructions that, when executed by a processor of a terminal, causes the terminal to perform acts comprising:
- acquiring a binding password from a smart home device in a local area network;
- transmitting a binding request for binding with the smart home device to a server, wherein the binding request comprises a binding password and a user login Identifier (ID), such that the server establishes a binding relationship between the user login ID and the smart home device when the binding password in the binding request matches with a stored password in the server.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored therein instructions that, when executed by a processor of a server, causes the server to perform acts comprising:
- receiving a binding request from a terminal, wherein the binding request comprises a binding password and a user login Identifier (ID), and the binding password is acquired by the terminal from a smart home device in a local area network;
- matching the binding password with locally stored passwords;
- and
- when the binding password matches with one of the locally stored passwords, establishing a binding relationship between the user login ID and the smart home device corresponding to the one of the locally stored passwords.
