FIELD: physics, communications.
SUBSTANCE: invention concerns network technologies. The invention claims home network system allowing users to control adding or removal of domain devices directly via user interface and to control efficiently changes in domain devices state, and relevant control method. Home network system includes: master device forming domain with at least one slave device, transferring predetermined domain key to slave devices included in the domain, forming new domain key each time when domain configuration changes and transferring new domain key to slave devices in the domain; and control point with user interface allowing direct domain configuration change.
EFFECT: prevention of frequent domain key change.
