Abstract

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium stores therein a control program. The control program is executed by a control device that controls an access point conducting a communication by using a first identifier. The control device identifies an access point that becomes a target of disaster setting, in which a communication is conducted by using a second identifier different from the first identifier, on the basis of disaster information obtained from a providing source of information. The control device outputs, to a user interface, information for confirming whether or not the disaster setting is to be applied. Further, the control device sends an instruction to apply the disaster setting to the access point when a request to apply the disaster setting has been obtained.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having stored therein a program for causing a control device to execute a process, wherein the control device controls an access point conducting a communication by using a first identifier, the process comprising:
identifying an access point that becomes a target of disaster setting, in which a communication is conducted by using a second identifier as substitute for the first identifier, based on disaster information obtained from a providing source of information, the first identifier being used for communications with specified terminals, the second identifier being used for communications with unspecified terminals, the access point being identified using a weight for the access point, the weight being determined based on a combination of the providing source, a disaster type and a scale of a disaster, information of each of the providing source, the disaster type and the scale of the disaster being extracted from the disaster information;
outputting, to a user interface, information for confirming whether or not the disaster setting is to be applied; and
sending an instruction to apply the disaster setting to the access point when a request to apply the disaster setting has been obtained.

2. The recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein
the program causes the control device to further execute a process comprising
sending, to a transfer device included in a route between a terminal communicating with a communication destination via the access point and the communication destination, an instruction to change setting so that a communication between the terminal and the communication destination becomes possible by using the second identifier.

3. The recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein
the control program causes the control device to execute a process comprising:
extracting a combination of a disaster type, a scale, and a disaster location that were reported, from disaster information obtained from the providing source; and
identifying an access point for which the combination meets a condition for conducting the disaster setting in a process of identifying an access point that becomes a target of the disaster setting.

4. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having stored therein a program for causing a control device to execute a process, wherein the control device controls an access point conducting a communication by using a first identifier, the process comprising:
identifying an access point that becomes a target of disaster setting, in which a communication is conducted by using a second identifier as substitute for the first identifier, based on disaster information obtained from a providing source of information, the first identifier being used for communications with specified terminals, the second identifier being used for communications with unspecified terminals, the access point being identified based on reliability of information reported by the providing source and also based on a scale of a disaster or a degree of caution against a disaster reported in the disaster information;
outputting, to a user interface, information for confirming whether or not the disaster setting is to be applied;
sending an instruction to apply the disaster setting to the access point when a request to apply the disaster setting has been obtained; and
sending an instruction to apply the disaster setting to the access point when information indicating whether or not the disaster setting is to be applied has not been input before a period of time that has elapsed after the outputting reaches a prescribed length.

5. A control device that controls an access point conducting a communication by using a first identifier, the control device comprising:
a processor configured
to identify an access point that becomes a target of disaster setting, in which a communication is conducted by using a second identifier as substitute for the first identifier, based on disaster information obtained from a providing source of information, the first identifier being used for communications with specified terminals, the second identifier being used for communications with unspecified terminals, the access point being identified using a weight for the access point, the weight being determined based on a combination of the providing source, a disaster type and a scale of a disaster, information of each of the providing source, the disaster type and the scale of the disaster being extracted from the disaster information, and
to output, to a user interface, information for confirming whether or not the disaster setting is to be applied; and

a transmitter configured to send an instruction to apply the disaster setting to the access point when a request to apply the disaster setting has been obtained.

6. A control method of a control device that controls an access point conducting a communication by using a first identifier, the method comprising:
identifying an access point that becomes a target of disaster setting, in which a communication is conducted by using a second identifier as substitute for the first identifier, based on disaster information obtained from a providing source of information, the first identifier being used for communications with specified terminals, the second identifier being used for communications with unspecified terminals, the access point being identified using a weight for the access point, the weight being determined based on a combination of the providing source, a disaster type and a scale of a disaster, information of each of the providing source, the disaster type and the scale of the disaster being extracted from the disaster information;
outputting, to a user interface, information for confirming whether or not the disaster setting is to be applied; and
sending an instruction to apply the disaster setting to the access point when a request to apply the disaster setting has been obtained.

7. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having stored therein a control program causing a control device to execute a process, wherein the control device controls an access point conducting a communication by using a first identifier, the process comprising:
obtaining disaster information from a providing source of information; and
identifying automatically, when the disaster information has been obtained, an access point that is a target for which setting is changed using a weight for the access point, and identifying a second identifier that starts to be used as substitute for the first identifier in response to the setting change for the identified access point, the weight being determined based on a combination of the providing source, a disaster type and a scale of a disaster, information of each of the providing source, the disaster type and the scale of the disaster being extracted from the disaster information,
wherein the first identifier being used for communications with specified terminals and the second identifier being used for communications with unspecified terminals.

8. A control device that controls an access point conducting a communication by using a first identifier, the control device comprising:
a receiver configured to obtain disaster information from a providing source of information; and
a processor configured to identify automatically, when the disaster information has been obtained, an access point that is a target for which setting is changed using a weight for the access point, and to identify a second identifier that starts to be used as substitute for the first identifier in response to the setting change for the identified access point, the weight being determined based on a combination of the pro
