A method and apparatus for reporting the operation state of digital rights management are provided. In a home network formed with control device (300)s and a control point (360), the apparatus for reporting the operation state of digital rights management of the control device (300) to the control point (360) includes: a digital rights management (DRM) module which performs digital rights management; a state variable generation unit (340) which receives DRM operation state information indicating the state of a DRM process currently operating, from the DRM module (310), and based on the received DRM state information, generates DRM state variables; and a universal plug and play (uPnP) module which by using a uPnP protocol, transmits the generated state variables to the control point (360). <IMAGE> |
