Communication apparatus, method of controlling the same, and storage medium
A communication apparatus equipped with a direct wireless communication function for executing a direct wireless communication with an external apparatus includes a memory that stores a program and a processor that executes the program. In a case that a first setting for instructing to use a Service Set Identifier, SSID, corresponding to a user who uses the communication apparatus is set in the communication apparatus, the direct wireless communication function is executed using the SSID corresponding to the user, in a case that a second setting for instructing to use an SSID that is randomly generated is set in the communication apparatus, the direct wireless communication function is executed using the SSID that is randomly generated, and in a case that a third setting for instructing to use a default SSID is set in the communication apparatus, the direct wireless communication function is executed using the default SSID.
1. A communication apparatus equipped with a direct wireless communication function for executing a direct wireless communication with an external apparatus, the communication apparatus comprising:
a memory that stores a program;
a processor that executes the program to;
in a case that a first setting for instructing to use a Service Set Identifier, SSID, corresponding to a user who logs into the communication apparatus, is set in the communication apparatus, execute the direct wireless communication function using the SSID corresponding to the user who logs into the communication apparatus;
in a case that a second setting for instructing to use an SSID that is randomly generated is set in the communication apparatus, execute the direct wireless communication function using the SSID that is randomly generated; and
in a case that a third setting for instructing to use a default SSID is set in the communication apparatus, execute the direct wireless communication function using the default SSID.
2. The communication apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the communication apparatus is a printing apparatus that can execute printing.
3. The communication apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor generates the SSID corresponding to the user who logs into the communication apparatus using at least user information of the user.
4. The communication apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the processor generates the SSID corresponding to the user by combining user information of the user with a predetermined character string.
5. The communication apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the direct wireless communication function is performed in a software access point mode.
6. The communication apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the direct wireless communication function is Wi-Fi Direct.
7. A method of controlling a communication apparatus equipped with a direct wireless communication function that executes a direct wireless communication with an external apparatus, the method comprising:
in a case that a first setting for instructing to use a Service Set Identifier, SSID, corresponding to a user who logs into the communication apparatus, is set in the communication apparatus, executing the direct wireless communication function using the SSID corresponding to the user who logs into the communication apparatus;
in a case that a second setting for instructing to use an SSID that is randomly generated is set in the communication apparatus, executing the direct wireless communication function using the SSID that is randomly generated; and
in a case that a third setting for instructing to use a default SSID is set in the communication apparatus, executing the direct wireless communication function using the default SSID.
8. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a processor to execute a method of controlling a communication apparatus equipped with a direct wireless communication function that executes a direct wireless communication with an external apparatus, the method comprising:
in a case that a first setting for instructing to use a Service Set Identifier, SSID, corresponding to a user who logs into the communication apparatus, is set in the communication apparatus, executing the direct wireless communication function using the SSID corresponding to the user who logs into the communication apparatus;
in a case that a second setting for instructing to use an SSID that is randomly generated is set in the communication apparatus, executing the direct wireless communication function using the SSID that is randomly generated; and
in a case that a third setting for instructing to use a default SSID is set in the communication apparatus, executing the direct wireless communication function using the default SSID.
