When an application is activated, a mobile stationdetects external devicesas candidates for a BLUETOOTH connection out of external devices existing in the surrounding area, and presents a list of the devices to a user. When the user selects from the list an external devicewith which a connection is to be attempted to make, a link is established by a connection procedure according to a security level described in an ADF of the application. Namely, when 'high' is described as the security level, an authentication process and an encryption process requiring input of a PIN are executed prior to the establishment of the link. On the other hand, when 'low' is described as the security level, a link is established without executing these processes.
