Wireless communication system and information providing method

An information providing method for a control device, comprising:

• controlling a setting device to set a provisioning information to a first wireless device, the setting device being configured to receive an identification information from the first wireless device, the identification information being used for identifying the first wireless device, the provisioning information being specified by using the identification information and being required for the first wireless device to join a wireless communication network;
• receiving the provisioning information from the setting device;
• determining, using the provisioning information, whether or not to allow the first wireless device transmitting a request for joining the wireless communication network to join the wireless communication network;
• generating, by a management device, a join history information for each wireless device, the join history information including the provisioning information and the joining information which are associated with each other;
• providing, by the management device, the join history information, in a case that the setting device transmits a request for acquiring the join history information, to the setting device in response to the request for acquiring the join history information from the setting device,
• displaying a list of join history information provided by the management device,
• specifying a provisioning information to be used for reprovisioning based on an order of an operator, and
• performing the reprovisioning on the first wireless device by using the provisioning information specified by the setting device.

A wireless communication system comprising:

• a first wireless device;
• a management device configured to manage a first join history information including a provisioning information and a joining information, the provisioning information being required for the first wireless device to join a wireless communication network, and the joining information indicating a history of the first wireless device concerning previous join in the wireless communication network;
• a setting device configured to acquire the first join history information from the management device, and set to the first wireless device, the provisioning information included in the first join history information;
• and
• a control device configured to receive the provisioning information from the setting device, and in a case that a first request for joining the wireless communication network is received from the first wireless device, determine whether or not to accept the first request based on the provisioning information,
• wherein the management device is configured to receive the provisioning information from the setting device, receive the joining information from the control device, and generate the join history information including the provisioning information and the joining information which are associated with each other, and
• the setting device is configured to
• display a list of join history information acquired from the management device,
• specify a provisioning information to be used for reprovisioning based on an order of an operator, and
• perform the reprovisioning on the first wireless device by using the provisioning information specified by the setting device.
