Abstract
A management server that manages a network device (e.g., an MFP) using NETCONF registers, in the MFP, designation of a condition under which the MFP is to notify the management server of an event, receives, from the MFP, a first notification indicating that a transition is made from a first state in which a session enabling the event notification is established to a second state in which the session needs to be disconnected and a second notification indicating return to the first state, and re-registers the designation of the condition in the MFP in response to reception of the second notification.
Claims11
A management apparatus that manages a network device using a predetermined protocol via a network, the management apparatus comprising:
- a memory storing instructions;
- and
- a processor which is capable of executing the instructions causing the management apparatus to:
- register, in the network device, designation of a condition under which the network device is to notify the management apparatus of an event;
- receive, from the network device, a first notification indicating that a state of the network device transitions from a first state in which a session enabling the event notification between the network device and the management apparatus is established to a second state in which the session needs to be disconnected;
- receive, from the network device, a second notification indicating that the state of the network device returns to the first state;
- and
- re-register the designation of the condition in the network device in response to reception of the second notification,
- wherein, in the re-registration in response to the reception of the second notification, time from a time of receiving the first notification to a time before receiving the second notification is set as time information used for determining an event to be notified from among events matching the condition.
A control method for a management apparatus that manages a network device using a predetermined protocol via a network, the control method comprising:
- registering, in the network device, designation of a condition under which the network device is to notify the management apparatus of an event;
- receiving, from the network device, a first notification indicating that a state of the network device transitions from a first state in which a session enabling the event notification between the network device and the management apparatus is established to a second state in which the session needs to be disconnected;
- receiving, from the network device, a second notification indicating that the state of the network device returns to the first state;
- and
- re-registering the designation of the condition in the network device in response to reception of the second notification,
- wherein, in the re-registration in response to the reception of the second notification, time from a time of receiving the first notification to a time before receiving the second notification is set as time information used for determining an event to be notified from among events matching the condition.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium on which is stored a computer program for making a computer execute a control method for a management apparatus that manages a network device using a predetermined protocol via a network, the control method comprising:
- registering, in the network device, designation of a condition under which the network device is to notify the management apparatus of an event;
- receiving, from the network device, a first notification indicating that a state of the network device transitions from a first state in which a session enabling the event notification between the network device and the management apparatus is established to a second state in which the session needs to be disconnected;
- receiving, from the network device, a second notification indicating that the state of the network device returns to the first state;
- and
- re-registering the designation of the condition in the network device in response to reception of the second notification,
- wherein, in the re-registration in response to the reception of the second notification, time from a time of receiving the first notification to a time before receiving the second notification is set as time information used for determining an event to be notified from among events matching the condition.
