In an environment such as the Internet where a wide variety of electronic apparatuses should be managed and which includes many electronic apparatuses, connection must be modified smoothly according to a status change. An apparatus status collection unit collects apparatus status such as types, loads and positions of electronic apparatuses. A communication status collection unit collects communication status such as a type, path and load of communication. A connection rule retention unit retains beforehand a connection rule indicating a communication connection method being relevant to certain apparatus status, communication status and terminal status. A connection method decision unit compares apparatus status, communication status and terminal status with connection rules to extract a connection rule indicating an appropriate connection method. Then, the connection method decision unit causes an apparatus driver unit, the protocol conversion unit and a network communication unit to set the units to the decided connection method.
