NETWORK APPARATUS, IPSEC SETTING METHOD THEREIN, AND COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM STORING A CONTROL PROGRAM FOR EXECUTING THE METHOD
First Claim
1. A network apparatus which is connected to a network, comprising:
- a managing unit which manages an address range in which addresses to be allocated to a destination network apparatus are registered and encryption parameters for encrypting data to be transmitted to the destination network apparatus so that the address range and the encryption parameters are related to each other;
an address generating unit which generates an address for the destination network apparatus by selecting an address in the address range; and
an encryption unit which encrypts the data to be transmitted to the address generated by the address generating unit based on the encryption parameters.
