Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To control a device without needing the knowledge for a low level command for a prescribed device by automatically converting a high level policy designated by an operator into the low level command for the prescribed device and sending it to the device through a computer network. SOLUTION: When a user 126 inputs an entry requesting the generation of a policy on a GUI: 124, a policy server 122 receives it, for instance, through an LDAP protocol interface 208 and stores it in a directory 210. A policy factory 240 generates a corresponding policy object in a Java program language based on an attribute designating a policy included in the entry and stores it in a policy storage area 220. The policy object includes data and a method for mounting the policy, communicates with a device on a network 108 and controls the device according to a policy schedule.
