A communication system includes: a plurality of nodes each of which forwards a packet; a terminal device to establish a connection with at least one of the nodes, and to access a network through at least one of the nodes; and a control device to control a packet forwarding route in response to a request which is sent from at least one of the nodes to request for setting the packet forwarding route. The control device includes: a unit that stores a plurality of location information respectively corresponding to the respective nodes; a unit that receives the request sent from at least one of the nodes connected to the terminal device; and a unit that identifies a location of the terminal device based on the location information corresponding to the at least one of the nodes, and controls the packet forwarding route by using the location of the terminal device.
