Abstract

A system includes a managing terminal, a mobile device, and cameras. The mobile device sends, when it is near one of the cameras, positional information of the mobile device and a uniquely created identifier via a network to the managing terminal and displays information indicating the identifier in the form of a video image. The camera shoots the video image being displayed by the mobile device and including the information indicating the identifier to create a second video image including the information and sends the second video image via a network to the managing terminal. The managing terminal receives the second video image, extracts the identifier therefrom, and stores, if the identifier matches the identifier sent from the mobile device, the IP address assigned to the camera and the positional information with a correspondence established therebetween.
