Abstract
A system includes an apparatus among apparatuses configured to relay communication between equipment, and another apparatus coupled to the apparatuses through a network. The apparatus receives a beacon from one or more equipment for which given operation is executed by a user among a plurality of equipment, the beacon including first identifier whose value is common to the plurality of equipment, each of the plurality of equipment being configured to transmit the beacon; transmits the first identifier and second identifier identifying the one or more equipment, in the beacon, to the another apparatus; and executes relaying communication between equipment relating to a list of second identifier from the another apparatus. The another apparatus transmits, to one of apparatuses, a list of second identifier received in relation to first identifier with a common value in a plurality of the first identifier received from the one of apparatuses.
