To search for a device from an information processing apparatus in Simple Network Management Protocol version 3 (SNMPv3), it is necessary to set information such as authentication information. However, there is such an issue that, in a case where settings of such information are inadequate, if a desired multi-function printer (MFP) is a device with settings for responding only to SNMPv3, the desired MFP cannot be found even if a search is performed. Therefore, a user is notified that SNMPv3 settings are necessary.
