Abstract
An information terminal connected to one of a plurality of servers which are allocated by a dispatcher is connected to another information terminal via its allocated server. When a Web Browser 111 is connected to a Web Server 143 via a Dispatcher 120, a content including a button for requesting the agent side for connection is displayed in the web screen. When the customer clicks this button, a customer ID and an IP address of the server 142 are stored in a table 155. After a CTI Server allocated an agent, an Agent proxy 173 obtains an IP address corresponding to the customer to be connected and accesses to the server 142.
