11. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the method further comprises:
negotiating, by the first device, with the second device by using the verification code, to obtain an encryption key.
12. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first Wi-Fi sensing frame is a publish frame, a follow-up frame, or a subscribe frame.
13. A discovery and provisioning method, wherein the method is applied to a second device and comprises:
when a distance between the second device and a first device is less than or equal to a preset distance, receiving, by the second device, a first Wi-Fi sensing frame sent by the first device through a first antenna, wherein the first Wi-Fi sensing frame enables the second device to discover the first device; and
after the second device discovers the first device, sending, by the second device, a second Wi-Fi sensing frame to the first device, wherein the second Wi-Fi sensing frame comprises a service set identifier (SSID) of a Wi-Fi router and a password of the Wi-Fi router, and wherein second Wi-Fi sensing frame is received by the first device through a second antenna, wherein the first device comprises the first antenna and the second antenna, and a wireless transmit power of the first device operating by using the first antenna is less than a wireless transmit power of the first device operating by using the second antenna.
14. The method according to claim 13 , wherein the method further comprises:
after the first device is discovered by the second device and before the first device connects to the Wi-Fi router, receiving, by the second device, status information sent by the first device.
15. The method according to claim 13 , wherein the method further comprises:
after the first device is discovered by the second device and before the first device connects to the Wi-Fi router, sending, by the second device, a control command to the first device.
16. The method according to claim 15 , wherein the method further comprises:
displaying, by the second device, a control interface of the first device on a display screen after the first device is discovered by the second device and before the first device connects to the Wi-Fi router, wherein the control interface is used to control the first device; and
the sending, by the second device, a control command to the first device comprises: sending, by the second device, the control command to the first device in response to an operation on the control interface.
17. The method according to claim 13 , wherein the method further comprises:
