Abstract
Provided is an electronic apparatus that possibly registers a domain name, an IP address, and identification information on the electronic apparatus itself with a DNS server, which includes a communication unit and a processing unit. When the domain name of the electronic apparatus is registered with the DNS server, the processing unit makes an acquisition request for identification information that is associated with the domain name of the electronic apparatus. In a case where the acquired identification information is not the same as the identification information on the electronic apparatus, the processing unit changes the domain name, and performs processing that registers the IP address and the identification information with the DNS server in a state of being associated with a post-change domain name.
