TRAFFIC CONTROL METHOD AND APPARATUS |
摘要 |
A slave device accesses an external network through a master device via a short-range wireless communication channel between the master device and the slave device. The slave device receives a notification message from the master device, wherein the notification message includes information about a intermediate network used by the master device to connect to the external network. And the slave device controls network traffic between the slave device and the external network according to a type of the intermediate network. When a master device uses a network of a cellular network type, use of network traffic in an application on a slave device can be restricted, thereby saving traffic. |

1. A method performed by a slave device for traffic control, comprising:
accessing an external network through a master device via a short-range wireless communication channel between the master device and the slave device; receiving a notification message from the master device through the short-range wireless communication channel, wherein the notification message includes information about a intermediate network used by the master device to connect to the external network; parsing the notification message to get the information about a type of the intermediate network used by the master device to connect to the external network; retrieving a policy of network traffic control corresponding to the type of the intermediate network used by the master device; and controlling network traffic between the slave device and the external network via the short-range wireless communication channel between the master device and the slave device based on the policy. |
