Abstract

In accordance with an aspect, there is provided a method for supporting provision of service so that a client terminal is provided with desired service by adaptively modifying a network topology depending on service properties, including (a) when service type information indicating a type of desired service is acquired from the client terminal, and status information indicating status of one or more service provision servers is acquired, acquiring, by a management server, network configuration information as information corresponding to the service type information and the status information with reference to a DB, wherein the network configuration information is required by the client terminal to be provided with the service from a specific service provision server; and (b) transmitting, by the management server, acquired network configuration information to the client terminal, thus supporting network configuration such that the client terminal configures a network based on the network configuration information.
