A communication system includes a terminal, a server apparatus that manages the movement of the terminal, and a connection apparatus that connects the terminal to the server apparatus. The connection apparatus both records the MAC address of the terminal and records maintenance function execution necessity information that indicates whether a maintenance function must be executed for the terminal in association with the MAC address of the terminal, and uses a Mobile IP to transmit to the server apparatus a message that contains the maintenance function execution necessity information that was placed in association with the MAC address of the terminal. |
