1. An information processing apparatus can be interposed between a client computer and a processing apparatus including a file server, the information processing apparatus comprising:

  • a first reception unit configured to receive condition setting information which specifies a permission condition for permitting access to the file server, the condition setting information being sent from the file server when the processing apparatus transitions from a first power supply mode to a second power supply mode in which power consumption is less than that in the first power supply mode;

    a second reception unit configured to receive a process request with respect to the file server from the client computer;

    a determination unit configured to determine whether the process request received by the second reception unit satisfies the permission condition specified in the condition setting information; and

    a transfer control unit configured to send a response indicating a refusal of access to the client computer without transferring the process request received by the second reception unit to the file server when the determination unit has determined that the permission condition is not satisfied.
