<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an information processing system which detects a firewall between MFP and a Web server and changes a network connection method by the presence of the firewall, and a control method thereof. <P>SOLUTION: The information processing system comprises an image processing apparatus and an information processing apparatus which are connected via a network. The image processing apparatus requests, from the information processing apparatus, presence/absence information indicating whether a firewall is present or absent on a communication path between the image processing apparatus and the information processing apparatus. The information processing apparatus detects whether a firewall is present or absent on the communication path between the image processing apparatus and the information processing apparatus; makes adjustment to a communication method so as to adopt a first communication method if a firewall is present or a second communication method if a firewall is absent; and notifies the image processing apparatus of the result. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
