ABSTRACT:
Information processing system and control method thereof is provided. A camera server apparatus determines, upon receiving a connection request from a client, whether or not an additional client to the number of clients who are currently being connected would exceed a permissible number. If it is determined that the number of clients exceeds the permissible number, image data is not transferred to the client apparatus which has just sent the connection request, instead, information indicative of the current access state is transferred. Accordingly, the client side is able to know the access state of the camera server with which the client wants to connect.
