Abstract
Disclosed is a technology for a sensor network, machine to machine (M2M) communication, machine type communication (MTC), and the Internet of things (IoT). The disclosure can be utilized in an intelligent service (smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car or connected car, health care, digital education, retail business, security and safety-related services, and the like) based on the technology. A server control method according to the present invention comprises the steps of: receiving, from at least one network hub, communication state information on at least one electronic device connected to the at least one network hub; determining, on the basis of the received communication state information, another network hub for a connection of a first electronic device connected to the network hub on which an abnormal operation of a certain network hub is sensed, if the abnormal operation is sensed; and transmitting a request for a connection of the first electronic device to the determined other network hub.
