In response to user input and the aforementioned registration-state notification, the latter device (D5) transmits, to the former device (D4), a transmission request that requests that the former device (D4) transmit, to the NW management apparatus (C1), a transition request that requests that the NW management apparatus (C1) switch to a registration mode. The former device (D4) transmits said transition request to the NW management apparatus (C1) in response to the aforementioned transmission request, the NW management apparatus (C1) switches to the aforementioned registration mode in response to said transition request, and when the NW management apparatus (C1) is in said registration mode, the latter device (D5) transmits an authentication commencement request to the NW management apparatus (C1). |
