Abstract: An access point (AP) receives enrollee authentication information simulated by the network device from a network device. Then, the AP simulates an enrollee and broadcasts a configuration request including the enrollee authentication information. When a configurator responds to the configuration request, the AP identifies the configurator as an untrusted configurator, and then the AP transmits device information of the untrusted configurator to the network device. In this way, the untrusted configurator in the serving range can be detected, thereby avoiding the devices being provisioned to connect to untrusted networks.

Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure relate to detection of an untrusted configurator. In the implementations, an access point (AP) receives enrollee authentication information simulated by the network device from a network device. Then, the AP simulates an enrollee and broadcasts a configuration request including the enrollee authentication information. When a configurator responds to the configuration request, the AP identifies the configurator as an untrusted configurator, and then the AP transmits device information of the untrusted configurator to the network device. In this way, the untrusted configurator in the serving range can be detected, thereby avoiding the devices being provisioned to connect to untrusted networks.
