ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR DEVICE-PROVISIONING IN WIRELESS NETWORK, AND OPERATING METHOD THEREFOR

According to various embodiments, an electronic device may comprise a communication module and at least one processor functionally connected to the communication module. The at least one processor can be configured to: receive, from an external electronic device, through a communication module, a configuration request frame including identification information for identifying a registrant AP, in order to configure the external electronic device as the registrant AP; transmit, to the external electronic device, through the communication module, a configuration response frame including first channel information for indicating a channel used by the electronic device in the scanning of the external electronic device, on the basis of the configuration request frame; acquire connection information about the external electronic device by performing scanning through the communication module, on the basis of the first channel information and the identification information; and connect to the external electronic device through the communication module on the basis of the connection information about the external electronic device.
