Abstract

The disclosure discloses a method for managing network topology structure of a Machine to Machine (M2M) network. The method mainly includes: a control station of the M2M network obtains wireless link information of the M2M network; the control station completes establishment and/or adjustment of the network topology structure of the M2M network according to the obtained wireless link information. The disclosure also provides a device for managing network topology structure of an M2M network. By the disclosure, performing self-adaptive management on numerous terminals can be realized by the M2M network; by applying the disclosure to the wireless network management of the M2M network, manpower cost is saved and working efficiency is improved, and also it is of important significance to the smooth development of the telecom operation.
