Abstract
A communication apparatus obtains an encryption key by executing network introduction processing with another communication apparatus using a communication parameter obtained in accordance with DPP standard, executes connection processing with the other communication apparatus using the encryption key, and omits obtaining the encryption key by the network introduction processing in a re-connection with the other communication apparatus.
Claims21
A communication apparatus, comprising:
- a first obtaining unit configured to obtain a communication parameter in accordance with a Wi-Fi DPP (Device Provisioning Protocol) standard;
- a second obtaining unit configured to obtain an encryption key by executing network introduction processing conforming to DPP with a first other communication apparatus using the communication parameter obtained by the first obtaining unit;
- a connection unit configured to execute connection processing with the first other communication apparatus using the encryption key obtained by executing the network introduction processing;
- and
- a re-connection unit configured to establish connection with the first other communication apparatus while omitting obtaining the encryption key by the network introduction processing, in a re-connection with the first other communication apparatus.
A communication apparatus, comprising:
- an obtaining unit configured to obtain an encryption key by executing network introduction processing conforming to DPP with another communication apparatus;
- a connection unit configured to establish connection with the other communication apparatus using the encryption key obtained by executing the network introduction processing;
- and
- a re-connection unit configured to establish, if a request signal to which information for specifying the encryption key is added has been received from the other communication apparatus, connection with the other communication apparatus while omitting the network introduction processing.
A control method of a communication apparatus, comprising:
- obtaining a communication parameter in accordance with a Wi-Fi DPP (Device Provisioning Protocol) standard;
- obtaining an encryption key by executing network introduction processing conforming to DPP with a first other communication apparatus using the communication parameter obtained;
- executing connection processing with the first other communication apparatus using the encryption key obtained by executing the network introduction processing;
- and
- establishing connection with the first other communication apparatus while omitting obtaining the encryption key by the network introduction processing, in a re-connection with the first other communication apparatus.
A control method of a communication apparatus, comprising:
- obtaining an encryption key by executing network introduction processing conforming to DPP with another communication apparatus:
- establishing connection with the other communication apparatus using the encryption key obtained by executing the network introduction processing;
- and
- establishing, if a request signal to which information for specifying the encryption key is added has been received from the other communication apparatus, connection with the other communication apparatus while omitting the network introduction processing.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a control method of a communication apparatus, the control method comprising:
- obtaining a communication parameter in accordance with a Wi-Fi DPP (Device Provisioning Protocol) standard;
- obtaining an encryption key by executing network introduction processing conforming to DPP with a first other communication apparatus using the communication parameter obtained;
- executing connection processing with the first other communication apparatus using the encryption key obtained by executing the network introduction processing;
- and
- establishing connection with the first other communication apparatus while omitting obtaining the encryption key by the network introduction processing, in a re-connection with the first other communication apparatus.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a control method of a communication apparatus, the control method comprising:
- obtaining an encryption key by executing network introduction processing conforming to DPP with another communication apparatus:
- establishing connection with the other communication apparatus using the encryption key obtained by executing the network introduction processing;
- and
- establishing, if a request signal to which information for specifying the encryption key is added has been received from the other communication apparatus, connection with the other communication apparatus while omitting the network introduction processing.
