Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and a device for searching for and controlling controllees in a smart home system. The method for searching for and controlling controllees existing on two or more networks from controllers in a smart home system, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises the steps of: requesting a list of the controllees and receiving the list of the controllees from a server; transmitting a response request signal for requesting a response to the controllees existing in the received list of the controllees; and, when a response signal has not been received from one or more controllees, generating a non-response list for controlling, by the server, the controllees from which the response signal has not been received.
