Abstract
When a communication apparatus instructed to perform an automatic setting process detects an existing network, the communication apparatus monitors whether a communication apparatus that is in the existing network and that has a communication-parameter providing function starts an automatic setting process. When the communication apparatus in the existing network starts an automatic setting process, the communication apparatus receives communication parameters provided from the communication apparatus in the existing network.
