First Claim
1. A network system comprising at least one equipment, a client terminal device, and a server connected between said equipment and said client terminal device via a network, and configured such that said client terminal device requests an execution of a server-side object to said server, and then said server requests an execution of an equipment-side object to said equipment,the execution request of said server-side object from said client terminal device is performed by use of a first identifier assigned to said server-side object, and the execution request of said equipment-side object from said server is performed by use of a second identifier assigned to said equipment-side object,said second identifier comprises at least one identifier defined according to a function of said equipment, which executes said equipment-side object according to the execution request of said server-side object using said first identifier from said client terminal device, andsaid server has an identifier setting portion configured to set a correspondence relation between said first identifier and said second identifier.

Abstract
A network system suitable for remote monitoring or remote control of equipments is provided. When an execution of a server-side object is requested from a client terminal device to a server, the server requests an execution of an equipment-side object to the equipment(s). The execution request of the server-side object from the client terminal device is performed by use of a first identifier assigned to the server-side object, and the execution request of the equipment-side object is performed by use of a second identifier assigned to the equipment-side object. Since the server has an identifier setting function of setting a correspondence relation between the first identifier and the second identifier, it is possible to reduce burden on the client terminal device, and flexibly cope with cases of exchanging and increasing the equipment(s) in the network system without considering specific identification information of the equipments such as IP address.
