COMMUNICATION DEVICE, WIRELESS NETWORK, PROGRAM, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

摘要

The present invention provides a technique of enabling communication devices constituting a wireless network to register and update identification information easily, and thereby ensuring security of the communication devices and the wireless network and of detecting a communication device suspected of accessing a wireless network illegally and informing a user of the communication device. Communication terminal 20b detects and reports networked devices constituting wireless LAN 1, and if communication with the reported networked devices is permitted through an operation of operating unit 204, registers the MAC addresses of the networked devices in permission table 206a. Communication terminal 20b permits communication with a networked device constituting wireless LAN 1 whose MAC address has been registered in permission table 206a, and prohibits communication with a networked device constituting wireless LAN 1 whose MAC address has not been registered in permission table 206a.
