Abstract:
An image forming apparatus for use in a network to establish a first session with a server external to the network in order to allow access from the server and connected to a relay device provided in the network is provided. The image forming apparatus includes a selector configured to change a communication mode of the image forming apparatus to any one of a first mode to function as a gateway and a second mode not to function as the gateway according to communication conditions with the relay device; and a communication device configured to establish, when the communication mode is changed from the second mode to the first mode, a second session with the server; wherein the selector establishes the second session when it is impossible to perform communication with the relay device.

Claim (Index 13):
The non-transitory recording medium according to  claim 11 , wherein the image forming apparatus is caused to perform transmission processing for receiving, when a new relay device is used as the relay device in order to establish the first session, new first specific information for identifying the new relay device, and after that, when it becomes impossible to perform communication with the new relay device, sending the new first specific information and the second specific information to the server in order to establish the second session.
