Abstract:
A non-transitory computer-readable medium stores computer-readable program instructions executable by a processor of a relay device communicable with a terminal management device and one or more terminal devices. The program instructions are configured to, when executed by the processor, cause the relay device to perform unicast communication with each terminal device, thereby obtaining at least one of a device name and a vendor name of each terminal device as determination information, determine, based on the determination information, whether each terminal device is a supported terminal device to be managed by the terminal management device, and perform unicast communication with one or more individual terminal devices each determined to be the supported terminal device, thereby obtaining terminal information from each supported terminal device, the terminal information regarding each supported terminal device being collected by the terminal management device via the relay device.
