Disclosed is a network device management apparatus by which no timeout occurs even when device discovery over a broad area is requested, and the network traffic for device discovery is little. The network device management apparatus according to this invention includes, in each subnet, a discovery FSA 308 for retrieving and holding device information. A CSB LM 302 for network device management manages the address information of the device discovery FSA 308 present in the network. When device discovery is requested by a client 309, the address information of a device discovery FSA corresponding to the discovery area is returned. The client retrieves device information from each device discovery FSA by using the notified address information.
