Communicating System Communicating Terminal Communicating Method And Storage Medium
Abstract:
a network service using apparatus automatically performs a communication setting of a communicating terminal when the network service using apparatus connects a network through the communicating terminal. A communicating terminal of the present invention contains a first communicating unit a second communicating unit a third communicating unit and a communication setting unit. The first communicating unit communicates with a network service providing apparatus through a network. The second communicating unit communicates with a network service using apparatus. The third communicating unit receives a request message of a communication path establishment from the network service using apparatus. The communication setting unit performs the communication settings of the first communicating unit and the second communicating unit to establish a communication path through the first communicating unit and the second communicating unit based on the request message from the third communicating unit.

Description
Title of Invention: COMMUNICATING SYSTEM, COMMU¬
NICATING TERMINAL, COMMUNICATING METHOD AND
STORAGE MEDIUM
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a communicating system, and more particularly
relates to a communicating system that includes a network service using apparatus in
which a network connection setting is not performed.
Background Art
[0002] It is known that there is an art for remote controlling an apparatus such as an
automatic vending machine through a network. JP 2011 -229 184A (Patent Literature 1)
discloses a communicating system that provides a communication path to a network
service using apparatus, by preparing a connecting apparatus in which a commu
nication setting (a communication configuration) is performed in advance each
network service using apparatus. However, in the communicating system in the patent
literature 1, each network service using apparatus requires the connecting apparatus.
[0003] In order to reduce a cost required for the connecting apparatus, it is considered a
method in which the network service using apparatus connects with the network
through a communicating terminal held by a user of the network service using
apparatus. A NEC Casio Mobile Communications, "Medias WP using guide WiFi/
mobile network" (non-patent literature 1) discloses a network system in which a user
of a communicating terminal (master device) performs a communication setting of the
communicating terminal (master device) and consequently provides a communication
path through the communicating terminal (master device), to the network service using
apparatus (slave device). However, in the network system in the non-patent literature
1, the user of the communicating terminal needs to manually perform the commu
nication setting to provide the communication path to the network service using
apparatus.

Summary of the Invention
[0006] A subject matter of the present invention is to provide a communicating system
which a communicating terminal doesn't need to manually perform the communication
setting for providing the communication path to the network service using apparatus.
[0007] A communicating terminal of the present invention contains a first communicating
unit, a second communicating unit, a third communicating unit and a communication
setting unit. The first communicating unit communicates with a network service
providing apparatus through a network. The second communicating unit communicates
with a network service using apparatus. The third communicating unit receives a
request message of a communication path establishment, from the network service
using apparatus. The communication setting unit performs the communication settings
of the first communicating unit and the second communicating unit to establish a com
munication path through the first communicating unit and the second communicating
unit based on the request message from the third communicating unit.
[0008] A communicating system of the present invention contains the above-mentioned
communicating terminal, a network service using apparatus and a network service
providing apparatus. The network service using apparatus communicates with the com
municating terminal. The network service providing apparatus communicates with the
communicating terminal through a network.
[0009] In a communicating method, a first communicating unit communicates with the
network service providing apparatus through a network. A second communicating unit
communicates with the network service using apparatus. A third communicating unit
receives a request message of a communication path establishment, from the network
service using apparatus. A communication setting unit performs the communication
settings of the first communicating unit and the second communicating unit to establish
a communication path through the first communicating unit and the second commu
nicating unit based on the request message from the third communicating unit.
[0010] A program of the present invention is a program to make a computer in the abovementioned
communicating method. It should be noted that the program of the present
invention can be stored in a storage unit and a storage medium.
[001 1] According to the present invention, a network service using apparatus can auto
matically perform a communication setting of a communicating terminal, when the
network service using apparatus connects a network through the communicating
terminal.
