System for establishing communication between a plurality of terminals, method of controlling the same, and storage medium
First Claim
1. A communication system including a first terminal and a second terminal, at least one management server, and a relay server configured to relay communication between the first terminal and the second terminal,wherein the at least one management server comprises:
- at least one first memory device that stores a set of instructions; and
at least one processor that executes the instructions stored in the at least one first memory device to;
notify, in a case where the first terminal is authenticated in response to a request from the first terminal, the first terminal of first authority information used by the first terminal to request the relay server to verify an authority of the first terminal and connection information used by the first terminal to connect to the relay server; and
notify, in a case where the second terminal is authenticated in response to a request from the second terminal, the second terminal of second authority information used by the second terminal to request the relay server to verify an authority of the first terminal, andwherein the relay server comprises;
at least one second memory device that stores a set of instructions; and
at least one processor that executes the instructions stored in the at least one second memory device to;
verify the first authority information which is transmitted by the first terminal to the relay server using the connection information;
verify the second authority information which is transmitted by the second terminal to the relay server using the connection information;
issue, in a case where a verification of the first authority information received from the first terminal succeeds, access information used for the communication between the first terminal and the second terminal via the relay server and transmit the access information to the first terminal;
transmit the access information to the second terminal in a case where a verification of the second authority information received from the second terminal succeeds; and
relay support data including at least instruction data for remote control of the first terminal by the second terminal based on the access information,wherein the relay server receives, from the second terminal, after the verification of the second authority information succeeds, specifying information corresponding to the first terminal, and, the relay server transmits, to the second terminal, the access information corresponding to the specifying information received from the second terminal.

Abstract
In a communication system including a first terminal and a second terminal, a management server manages the first terminal and the second terminal, and a relay server relays communication between the first terminal and the second terminal, upon authenticating the first terminal, the management server notifies the first terminal of first authentication information for requesting authentication to the relay server and connection information for connecting to the relay server, and upon authenticating the second terminal, the management server notifies the second terminal of second authentication information for requesting authentication to the relay server. In response to a request from the first terminal, the relay server creates access information and transmits it to the first terminal. The relay server transmits the access information to the second terminal and relays the communication performed between the first terminal and the second terminal.

9. A method of controlling a communication system including a first terminal and a second terminal, at least one management server, and a relay server configured to relay communication between the first terminal and the second terminal,
wherein the at least one management server executes: -
in a case where the first terminal is authenticated in response to a request from the first terminal, notifying the first terminal of first authority information used by the first terminal to request the relay server to verify an authority of the first terminal and connection information used by the first terminal to connect to the relay server; and in a case where the second terminal is authenticated in response to a request from the second terminal, notifying the second terminal of second authority information used by the second terminal to request the relay server to verify an authority of the first terminal, and wherein the relay server executes; verifying the first authority information which is transmitted by the first terminal to the relay server using the connection information; verifying the second authority information which is transmitted by the second terminal to the relay server using the connection information; in a case where a verification of the first authority information received from the first terminal succeeds, issuing access information used for the communication between the first terminal and the second terminal via the relay server and transmitting the access information to the first terminal; transmitting the access information to the second terminal in a case where a verification of the second authority information received from the second terminal succeeds; and relaying support data including at least instruction data for remote control of the first terminal by the second terminal based on the access information, wherein the relay server receives, from the second terminal, after the verification of the second authority information succeeds, specifying information corresponding to the first terminal, and, the relay server transmits, to the second terminal, the access information corresponding to the specifying information received from the second terminal.
