1. An apparatus that identifies a setting in a communication complying with a specific rule from a received signal on a basis of an identifier that is defined in the specific rule and associated with the setting, the apparatus comprising:

  • a memory; and

    a processor coupled to the memory and configured to;

    associate a first character string in a first received signal with the identifier in a case that converted characters of the first character string, which are generated by converting at least one of characters of the first character string by one of capitalization and lowercase conversions, are identical to characters of the identifier;

    determine whether a second character string in a second received signal corresponds to the identifier, in a case that characters of the second character string are identical to the characters of the first character string associated with the identifier, whereinthe second received signal is received after the first received signal, andthe characters of the identifier to be identical to the converted characters of the first character string are converted characters of the identifier which are generated by converting the characters of the identifier by at least one of the capitalization and the lowercase conversions;

    extract a header name from the received signal; and

    determine whether the extracted header name exists in a table, whereinin a case where the extracted header name is determined to not exist in the table, the processor is further configured to;

    identify a source from the received signal, anddetermine whether another table corresponding to the identified source exists in another memory, andin a case where the extracted header name is determined to exist in the table, the processor is further configured to;

    analyze a header value corresponding to the extracted header name, andstore a result of the analysis.
