Electronic device for performing network connection based on data transmission of application and method thereof

A method of an electronic device, the method comprising:

• detecting an event associated with data transmission of an application;
• identifying requirement information including at least one first parameter associated with the data transmission;
• identifying network capability information including at least one second parameter indicating capability of a network capable of being accessed by the electronic device;
• and
• performing a network connection for the data transmission based at least partly on the requirement information and the network capability information.

An electronic device, comprising:

• a communication circuit;
• a memory configured to include instructions;
• and
• a processor operatively connected to the communication circuit and the memory, wherein, when the instructions are executed, the processor is configured to:
• detect an event associated with data transmission of an application stored in the memory;
• identify requirement information including at least one first parameter associated with the data transmission;
• identify network capability information including at least one second parameter indicating capability of a network capable of being accessed by the electronic device;
• and
• perform a network connection for the data transmission based at least partly on the requirement information and the network capability information,
• wherein the first parameter indicates a network service type or a traffic type, and
• wherein the second parameter indicates at least one of quality of service (QoS) information, network slice selection assistance information (NSSAI), whether it is possible to support an edge computing technology, or a session and service continuity (SSC) mode.
