1. A method for controlling a terminal, wherein the method is applied to a base station, comprising:
configuring a first signaling, wherein the first signaling is for instructing the terminal to switch from a connected state to an idle state and to reside on a target network; and
sending the first signaling to the terminal,
wherein the first signaling comprises a Radio Resource Control (RRC) Release signaling, and
wherein configuring the first signaling comprises configuring a first information unit existing in the first signaling, wherein the first information unit is an information unit for indicating cell reselection priorities;
wherein configuring the first information unit existing in the first signaling comprises at least one of:
configuring, in the first information unit, a priority for a network frequency of the target network to be higher than a priority for a network frequency of a network which the terminal is currently on;
configuring, in the first information unit, priorities for different network frequencies based on a priority order for network frequencies of expected connected networks requested by the terminal; or
configuring, in the first information unit, a time length of a target timer as a target value; wherein the target timer is a timer for indicating a valid time length of the priorities for the network frequencies, and the target value comprises an infinite value or an expected value of the time length requested by the terminal.
