Abstract
A data processing device according to the present invention can request a first server to transmit identification information for identifying the data processing device and an address of the data processing device to a second server. Moreover, the data processing device can also transmit the identification information for identifying the data processing device and the address of the data processing device to the second server without the intermediation of the first server.
Claims13
A data processing device, comprising:
- an address obtaining unit that obtains an address of the data processing device from a first server;
- a request unit that requests the first server to transmit identification information for identifying the data processing device and the address obtained by the address obtaining unit to a second server to register the identification information and the address;
- and
- a transmission unit that transmits the identification information for identifying the data processing device and the address obtained by the address obtaining unit to the second server without intermediation of the first server to register the identification information and the address.
A data processing device, comprising:
- an address obtaining unit that obtains an address of the data processing device from a DHCP server with use of a DHCP;
- a request unit that requests the DHCP server to register identification information for identifying the data processing device and the address obtained by the address obtaining unit in a DNS;
- and
- a registration unit that registers the identification information for identifying the data processing device and the address obtained by the address obtaining unit in the DNS without intermediation of the DHCP server.
A registration method of registering identification information for identifying a data processing device and an address of the data processing device, comprising the steps of:
- making a request from the data processing device to a first server for causing the first server to transmit the identification information for identifying the data processing device and the address assigned to the data processing device by the first server to a second server to register the identification information and the address;
- and
- transmitting the identification information for identifying the data processing device and the address assigned to the data processing device by the first server from the data processing device to the second server to register the identification information and the address without intermediation of the first server.
A registration method of registering identification information for identifying a data processing device and an address of the data processing device in a DNS, comprising the steps of:
- making a request from the data processing device to a DHCP server for causing the DHCP server to register in the DNS the identification information for identifying the data processing device and the address assigned with use of the DHCP to the data processing device;
- and
- registering in the DNS the identification information for identifying the data processing device and the address assigned with use of the DHCP to the data processing device, without intermediation of the DHCP server.
A computer program stored in a storage medium, for controlling a computer to execute the steps of:
- obtaining an address of the computer from a first server;
- making a request from the computer to the first server for causing the first server to transmit the identification information for identifying the computer and the address obtained in the address obtaining step to a second server to register the identification information and the address;
- and
- transmitting the identification information for identifying the computer and the address assigned to the computer by the first server from the computer to the second server to register the identification information and the address without intermediation of the first server.
