Abstract
A display generating device includes a display screen generator generating a display screen showing connection status between each wireless communication device in a wireless network in which a plurality of the wireless communication devices operate in an autonomous and distributed manner, and a detector detecting an operation of changing connection status performed by a user via the display screen generated by the display screen generator, wherein, when the operation of changing connection status is detected by the detector, the display generating device performs a change process of reflecting the content of the operation of changing connection status.

1-7. (canceled)
An apparatus, comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to:
- generate an image that shows a communication path between a transmitting device and a receiving device in a wireless communication network;
- control a display screen to display the generated image;
- detect a user input to update the communication path via the display screen;
- update the communication path between the transmitting device and the receiving device based on the user input,
- wherein the communication path graphically shows that the communication path is configured as a relay link, and
- wherein the relay link indicates that the receiving device relays data received from the transmitting device;
- and
- update path information based on the updated communication path,
- wherein the path information is related to an address of the receiving device, a next hop device, and a number of hop between the receiving device and the transmitting device.
A method, comprising:
- generating an image that shows a communication path between a transmitting device and a receiving device in a wireless communication network;
- controlling a display screen to display the generated image;
- detecting a user input to update the communication path via the display screen;
