Abstract

A network communication system has: a terminal performing communication through a wireless LAN; and a controller. The terminal retains flow SSID information indicating a correspondence relationship between each flow and SSID. When initiating communication of a new flow, the terminal transmits an allocation request to the controller. The allocation request requests for determination of an SSID to be used. In response to the allocation request, the controller determines an allocated SSID to be used regarding the new flow and notifies the terminal of allocation information indicating a correspondence relationship between the new flow and the allocated SSID. In accordance with the allocation information, the terminal registers the correspondence relationship between the new flow and the allocated SSID on the flow SSID information. The terminal refers to the flow SSID information and uses the allocated SSID corresponding to the new flow to connect to an access point of the wireless LAN.
