Abstract
An information processing apparatus including a control unit. In a case where a first physical layer network identifier for identifying a first network to which an apparatus in question belongs is determined to match a second physical layer network identifier for identifying a second network to which the apparatus in question does not belong, the control unit changes a first physical layer network identifier. Then, the control unit transmits the change information relating to the change to another information processing apparatus. Further, in a case where change information for changing a first physical layer network identifier for identifying a first network to which the apparatus in question belongs is received from another information processing apparatus which belongs to the first network, the control unit changes a condition for terminating reception processing of a packet on the basis of the change information in a middle of the reception processing.
