Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a communication technique which combines a 5G communication system, for supporting a higher data transmission rate than 4G systems, with IoT technology, and a system for same. The present disclosure relates to a wireless communication system, and more specifically, the present disclosure relates to: an application layer network structure which provides an edge computing service in a cellular wireless communication system (5G system); and a method for same. A method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is a method for a terminal to acquire edge data network setting information in order to receive an edge computing service in a wireless communication system, and includes: a step for transmitting an initial provisioning request message to an edge data network configuration server; and a step for receiving, from the edge data network configuration server, an initial provisioning response message including information about an edge data network, wherein the initial provisioning request message may include a URI address of the edge data network configuration server.
