Abstract
A communication relay device that relays communication performed between an image processing device and an application server via a network includes: an exchange key generating unit that generates an exchange key, and transmits the exchange key to the image processing device and a license server; a relay information generating unit that generates relay information used for relaying the communication; a storage unit that stores the relay information; a communication relay unit that relays the communication; a backup unit that transmits the relay information to a backup server connected to the network; an exchange key authenticating unit that determines whether or not an exchange sequence start condition is satisfied, and, when satisfied, acquires the exchange key and transmits the exchange key to the license server; and a setting reflecting unit that acquires the relay information from the backup server, and stores the relay information in the storage unit.
