Abstract
In at least one embodiment of the disclosure, a computing device comprises a network interface that receives terminal information corresponding to a terminal connected to a network. A storage device stores profile information defining that the terminal is permitted to connect to the computing device. A central processing unit refers to the received terminal information and the stored profile information and determines that the terminal is permitted to connect to the computing device. A display displays a participant display area. The display area shows a client name that corresponds to the terminal. An input mechanism accepts a user operation selecting the client name displayed in the participant display area to designate the terminal. The terminal provides image data to the computing device. The computing device supplies the image data provided by the terminal to an image display apparatus connected to the network.
