Usually when an App is asking for permission, it will be changing something in the permissions area. A WiFI configuration application will need to talk directly to your WIfI devices in order to work so this should be OK. Generally, apps are not allowed to see certain network parameters, since they would identify the user and allow tracking. I believe all applications that use the Chrome Cast protocol also need this permission.
