Abstract

A method for discovering devices in a mesh network. After receiving a plurality of request frames sent by a large number of first devices, a second device sends a response frame via broadcast form times, at an interval of n; and each first device that receives the response frame establishes a mutual discovery relationship with the second device. In the event that an extremely large number of devices are present in the mesh network, the present invention may greatly improve the probability of discovery between devices, and effectively suppress network storming, thereby enabling the mesh network to maintain a good network performance.
