Transmission management apparatus

Abstract

A transmission management apparatus manages transmission states of a plurality of transmission terminals including a first transmission terminal and a second transmission terminal. The apparatus includes a terminal management table storage unit configured to store therein a terminal management table in which terminal information including an identifier and an identification name of each transmission terminal is managed; a receiving unit configured to receive a terminal information request signal from the first transmission terminal, the terminal information request signal indicating a request for information for identifying the second transmission terminal, the first and second transmission terminals being in transmission therebetween; a terminal state acquisition unit configured to acquire the information for identifying the second transmission terminal from the terminal management table in response to the terminal information request signal; and a transmitting unit configured to transmit the information acquired by the terminal state acquisition unit to the first transmission terminal.

1 . A transmission management apparatus for managing transmission states of a plurality of transmission terminals including a first transmission terminal and a second transmission terminal, the transmission management apparatus comprising:
 a terminal management table storage unit configured to store therein a terminal management table in which terminal information including an identifier and an identification name of each of the transmission terminals is managed;   a receiving unit configured to receive a terminal information request signal from the first transmission terminal, the terminal information request signal indicating a request for information for identifying the second transmission terminal, the first transmission terminal and the second transmission terminal being in transmission therebetween;   a terminal state acquisition unit configured to acquire the information for identifying the second transmission terminal from the terminal management table in response to the terminal information request signal; and   a transmitting unit configured to transmit the information acquired by the terminal state acquisition unit to the first transmission terminal.
