Communication device, computer program product, and communication control method for establishing a communication path with another communication device also seeking to establish the communication path

摘要

A communication device is described in which a communication path is to be established with another communication device. The communication device transmits a first request packet to the other communication device and awaits a response. When a second request packet is received from the other communication device instead of a response to the first request packet, the communication device determines whether to transmit a positive response to the second request packet based on additional information included in the second request packet.
