Communication apparatus, communication systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for processing data according to different protocols in response to packets received using different interface standards

摘要

A communication apparatus includes a communication interface, a processor, and a memory. The communication interface uses a first interface standard and a second interface standard. The memory stores computer-readable instructions therein. The processor executes the computer-readable instructions, which instruct the communication apparatus to perform various processes in accordance therewith. The computer-readable instructions instruct the communication apparatus to transmit a response packet to an external device in response to receiving a request packet from the external device when a condition is satisfied. The response packet complies with a specific protocol. The condition is satisfied when the request packet is received using the first interface standard and complies with the specific protocol. The condition is not satisfied when the request packet is received using the second interface standard and complies with the specific protocol.

主权项

1. A communication apparatus comprising:
a communication interface configured to communicate using a first interface standard and a second interface standard; a processor; and a memory storing computer-readable instructions therein, the computer-readable instructions, when executed by the processor, instructing the communication apparatus to:
transmit a first response packet, which complies with a specific protocol, to an external device in response to receiving a first request packet from the external device when a first condition is satisfied,
wherein the first condition is satisfied when the first request packet is received using the first interface standard and complies with the specific protocol, andwherein the first condition is not satisfied when the first request packet is received using the second interface standard and complies with the specific protocol;perform a specific function corresponding to the specific protocol in response to satisfaction of the first condition;perform another function corresponding to another protocol in response to receiving a second request packet from the external device when a second condition is satisfied,
wherein the second condition is satisfied when the second request packet is received using the first interface standard and complies with the other protocol, andwherein the second condition is satisfied when the second request packet is received using the second interface standard and complies with the other protocol;transmit a second response packet, which comprises first execution information that indicates performance of the other function, using the first interface standard to the external device in response to receiving the second request packet using the first interface standard when the second request packet complies with the other protocol; andtransmit a third response packet, which comprises second execution information that indicates performance of the other function, using the second interface standard to the external device in response to receiving the second request packet using the second interface standard when the second request packet complies with the other protocol.
