A management apparatus according to embodiments of the present invention acquires, in a case where an internet protocol (IP) address of a network device having a plurality of network interfaces used for communicating with the network device is an IP address of an internet protocol version 6 (IPv6), all of values of an ipAddressIfIndex managed by the network device from the network device, and selects a value of an IfIndex corresponding to the IP address of the IPv6. In a case where the IP address of the network device is an IP address of an internet protocol version 4 (IPv4), the management apparatus acquires a value managed with an ipAdEntIfIndex from the network device.
