Mobile station and communication control method

When an application is activated, a mobile station 10 detects external devices 20, 30, 40 as candidates for a BLUETOOTH connection out of external devices existing in the surrounding area, and presents a list of the devices to a user. When the user selects from the list an external device 20 with which a connection is to be attempted to make, a link is established by a connection procedure according to a security level described in an ADF of the application. Namely, when "high" is described as the security level, an authentication process and an encryption process requiring input of a PIN are executed prior to the establishment of the link. On the other hand, when "low" is described as the security level, a link is established without executing these processes.
