<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique for activating a terminal on the inside of a LAN from a node on the outside of the LAN. <P>SOLUTION: A network system is provided with a LAN, a router connected to the Internet, and a server and a terminal which are connected to the Internet, and the LAN includes a computer and a WOL device, and the WOL device transmits a notification packet to which the server is set as the transmission destination, and the router performs address conversion of the notification packet, and the server acquires a global IP address assigned to the router from the notification packet subjected to address conversion and preserves the global address in a database and supplies the global IP address preserved in the database to the terminal in response to a request from the terminal. The terminal uses the global IP address transmitted from the server to transmit an activation request packet to the WOL device through the router. The WOL device generates an activation indication packet in response to the activation request packet and transmits it to the computer. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
