Abstract
An image capturing apparatus capable of communicating with another apparatus by using a network interface outputs information indicating that a setting in which a plurality of network interfaces of the image capturing apparatus belong to the same subnet is performed if the setting in which the plurality of network interfaces belong to the same subnet is made.
Claims17
An image capturing apparatus capable of communicating with another apparatus by using a plurality of network interfaces, the apparatus comprising:
- a computer executing instructions that, when executed by the computer, cause the computer to function as:
- a determining unit configured
- to detect, through at least one of the plurality of network interfaces, whether a setting for at least one of the plurality of network interfaces is changed, and
- to determine whether each of the plurality of network interfaces belongs to a same subnet, if it is detected that a setting for at least one of the plurality of network interfaces is changed;
- and
- an output unit configured to output information including an error message indicating that each of the plurality of network interfaces belongs to the same subnet if it is determined that each of the plurality of network interfaces belongs to the same subnet.
A client apparatus comprising:
- a computer executing instructions that, when executed by the computer, cause the computer to function as:
- an obtaining unit configured to obtain first information which is output from an image capturing apparatus capable of communicating with another apparatus by using a plurality of network interfaces and which includes an error message indicating that each of the plurality of network interfaces of the image capturing apparatus belongs to a same subnet;
- and
- an execution unit configured to display, on a screen, second information indicating that a setting for at least one of the plurality of network interfaces cannot be performed, based on at least the first information, if an operation for the setting has been executed by a user via the screen and the first information is obtained by the obtaining unit.
A method performed by an image capturing apparatus capable of communicating with another apparatus by using a network interface, the method comprising:
- detecting, through at least one of the plurality of network interfaces, whether a setting for at least one of the plurality of network interfaces is changed;
- determining whether each of the plurality of network interfaces belongs to a same subnet, if it is detected that a setting for at least one of the plurality of network interfaces is changed;
- and
- outputting information including an error message indicating that each of the plurality of network interfaces of the image capturing apparatus belongs to the same subnet if it is determined that each of the plurality of network interfaces belongs to the same subnet.
A method performed by a client apparatus, the method comprising:
- obtaining first information which is output from an image capturing apparatus capable of communicating with another apparatus by using a plurality of network interfaces and which includes an error message indicating that each of the plurality of network interfaces of the image capturing apparatus belongs to a same subnet;
- and
- displaying, on a screen, second information indicating that a setting for at least one of the plurality of network interfaces cannot be performed, based on at least the first information, if an operation for the setting has been executed by a user via the screen and the first information is obtained.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that stores a program for causing a computer comprised in an image capturing apparatus capable of communicating with another apparatus by using a plurality of network interfaces to:
- detect, through at least one of the plurality of network interfaces, whether a setting for at least one of the plurality of network interfaces is changed;
- determine whether each of the plurality of network interfaces belongs to a same subnet, if it is detected that setting for at least one of the plurality of network interfaces is changed;
- and
- output information including an error message indicating that each of the plurality of network interfaces of the image capturing apparatus belongs to the same subnet if it is determined that each of the plurality of network interfaces belongs to the same subnet.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that stores a program for causing a computer comprised in a client apparatus to:
- obtaining first information which is output from an image capturing apparatus capable of communicating with another apparatus by using a plurality of network interfaces and which includes an error message indicating that each of the plurality of network interfaces of the image capturing apparatus belongs to a same subnet;
- and
- displaying, on a screen, second information indicating that a setting for at least one of the plurality of network interfaces cannot be performed, based on at least the first information, if an operation for the setting has been executed by a user via the screen and the first information is obtained.
