However, you may make it select the common terminal 5 provided with the function which the transmission terminal 1 (1a) can respond | correspond, and you may make it determine as a receiving terminal. For example, when the functions that can be handled by the calling terminal 1 (1a) are “audio” (voice) and “video” (character / still image, moving image), the shared terminal 5 having the same function is selected. To do. In the case of a communication request from the transmission terminal 1 (1a) having the “vr” (Virtual Reality) function, the shared terminal 5 having the “vr” (Virtual Reality) function is selected and set as the destination terminal. Make a decision.

  By doing in this way, according to the destination solution system according to the modified example of the present embodiment, the optimal shared terminal 5 can be made to receive a call automatically on the system side. That is, the trouble of selecting the shared terminal 5 by the caller and the callee can be saved.
