Summary:An IP communication system comprises: a switching hub having at least first to (n + 1)-th ports (where n is an integer equal to or greater than two); first to n-th IP devices connected to the respective ones of the first to n-th ports; and an IP address setting unit connected to the (n + 1)-th port. The IP address setting unit transmits, to the switching hub, a first port open instruction to open the first port and to close the second to n-th ports, and thereafter transmits, to the switching hub, a first IP address to be set to the first IP device. Upon reception of the first port open instruction from the IP address setting unit, the switching hub opens the first port and closes the second to n-th ports. Upon reception of the first IP address, the switching hub transmits the first IP address to the first IP device.
