PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce troublesome work for setting a network apparatus and facilitate the setting according to a set position of the network apparatus.;SOLUTION: First, an equipment setting apparatus 820 photographs, with a camera, a two-dimensional code indicating an MAC address pasted on a network apparatus 810a and reads the MAC address a. Next, the equipment setting apparatus 820 broadcasts information which indicates a host name a designated by a manager and the MAC address a. The network apparatus 810a receives the host name a which corresponds to its own MAC address a, and informs a DNS server 602 of the host name a. The DNS server 602 registers the host name a and an IP address a assigned by a DHCP server 601 in the network apparatus 810a. Then, a client apparatus 830 acquires the IP address a corresponding to the host name a designated by a user from the DNS 602 and communicates with the network apparatus 810a.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
