Abstract
A monitoring device that is a relay device including a proxy server function of relaying communication between a device management service and a device determines whether or not a device receiving a device management service without using a proxy server function of the relay device has a self-monitoring function for the device management service, performs proxy setting on the device using proxy information of a proxy server function of the relay device in a case where the device has a self-monitoring function, and provides a registration instruction to a device to which the proxy setting has been performed to be re-registered as a device having a self-monitoring function in the device management service.
Claims9
A relay device including a proxy server function of relaying communication between a device management service and a device comprising:
- a memory storing instructions;
- and
- a processor executing the instructions causing the relay device to:
- determine whether or not a device receiving a device management service without using a proxy server function of the relay device has a self-monitoring function for the device management service;
- perform proxy setting on the device using proxy information of a proxy server function of the relay device in a case where the device has a self-monitoring function;
- and
- provide a registration instruction to a device to which the proxy setting has been performed to be re-registered as a device having a self-monitoring function in the device management service.
A control method of a relay device including a proxy server function of relaying communication between a device management service and a device, the method comprising:
- determining whether or not a device receiving a device management service without using a proxy server function of the relay device has a self-monitoring function for the device management service;
- performing proxy setting on a device using proxy information of a proxy server function of the relay device in a case where the device has a self-monitoring function;
- and
- providing a registration instruction to a device to which the proxy setting has been performed to be re-registered as a device having a self-monitoring function in the device management service.
A non-transitory storage medium storing a control program of a zoom control device causing a computer to perform each step of a control method of the zoom control device, the method comprising:
- determining whether or not a device receiving a device management service without using a proxy server function of the relay device has a self-monitoring function for the device management service;
- performing proxy setting on a device using proxy information of a proxy server function of the relay device in a case where the device has a self-monitoring function;
- and
- providing a registration instruction to the device for which the proxy setting has been performed to be re-registered as a device having a self-monitoring function in the device management service.
