<p>A communication apparatus is provided with network interfaces. A control unit provides an application programming interface for an application that runs on the communication apparatus. A transmission unit transmits a search packet via the respective network interfaces in response to a request from the application. A reception unit receives a response packet in response to the search packet that the transmission unit transmits. A first determination unit determines whether the information showing a transmitting source of the response packet that the reception unit received is stored in a storage unit. The control unit stores the information showing the transmitting source of the response packet received into the storage unit and transfers the response packet received to the application, when the first determination unit determines that the information showing the transmitting source of the response packet received is not stored in the storage unit.</p> |
