Abstract
A method for an information push service at a mobile station based on a wireless local area network (LAN) access point (AP). The method includes receiving a beacon message including a shortened Uniform Resource Locator (URL) from at least one AP, acquiring information based on the shortened URL included in the beacon message, and displaying the acquired information together with information included in the beacon message. The method allows a user to simply, conveniently, and easily acquire and make use of peripheral information of an area in which the user is located. The method also provides a service dependent on information on a position of contents, thereby being capable of allowing the user to easily access the contents.
