An information processing system includes an electronic apparatus, a server, and an external apparatus. The electronic apparatus acquires operation information for the electronic apparatus from the server, and directs the electronic apparatus to operate according to the operation information. The server receives an external apparatus identifier, electronic apparatus identifier, and operation information, from the external apparatus, and accumulates the information. The external apparatus accepts input of the electronic apparatus identifier and the operation information, and transmits the external apparatus identifier and the operation information to the server. Such an information processing system enables operation information for an electronic apparatus to be set and acquired, without directly accessing an electronic apparatus from an external apparatus, improving security.

Server, electronic apparatus, external apparatus, and information processing system using them, and electronic apparatus setting and status acquisition method

A first information-processing device for communication source performing tunnel communication with a device at communication destination, equipped with: tunnel communication part performing tunnel communication with communication target data encapsulated; identifier acceptor for accepting a communication destination device identifier for identifying a device for communication destination; identifier storage part for storing a communication source device identifier for identifying first information-processing device; and address determination part for determining an address used for communication target data, according to a communication destination device identifier and a communication source device identifier. Such a makeup provides an information-processing device capable of determining an address used for communication target data encapsulated in tunnel communication.

Information processing device, server, communication system, address decision method, address modification method, and program

A transmission and reception system includes a transmission apparatus and reception apparatuses. The transmission apparatus transmits a storage identifier for identifying a storage medium and data. The reception apparatuses each include a receiving section for receiving the storage identifier for identifying the storage medium and the data, and a storage control section for storing the data received by the receiving section on the storage medium identified by the storage identifier received by the receiving section. Hence, automatic storage of data conforming to personal taste and simultaneous automatic storage of data for plural persons are realized.

Transmitting and receiving system, transmitting apparatus and receiving apparatus

An information processing system formed with a relay and light output devices. In the system, an external information receiver receives first external information transmitted from an outside. An external information acquisition unit acquires second external information. A light output controller controls, based on the first and second external information, the light output to be in one or more number of output states, among three or more number of output states. At the relay, an external information receiver receives a sender identifier for identifying sender of the external information, and the external information. A transmission control information memory stores one or more sets of a transmission destination identifier and transmission control information. A transmission destination identifier acquisition unit acquires transmission destination identifier from the transmission control information memory. An external information transmitter transmits external information to a destination identified by the transmission destination identifier.
