HOME NETWORK SYSTEM AND METHOD THEREOF

摘要

A home network system allowing a user to directly control joining or removing of member devices in a domain using a user interface and to effectively control a status change of the member devices of the domain and a management method therefor. The home network system includes: a master device, which forms a domain with more than one controlled device, transmits a predetermined domain key to the controlled devices included in the domain, generates a new domain key whenever a configuration of the domain is changed, and transmits the new domain key to the controlled devices remaining in the domain; and a control point, which provides a user interface allowing a user to directly change the configuration of the domain.
