If a stored sequence number stored in a sequence number storage unit of a receiver coincides with a sequence number of a first arrival packet among a plurality of packets each having a smallest sequence number out of a plurality of packets stored in a packet reception buffer, then the receiver outputs the first arrival packet and increments the stored sequence number, and abandons the packets having smaller sequence numbers than the stored sequence number stored in the sequence number storage unit out of the plurality of packets stored in the packet reception buffer.

In a trunk network, each node, when notified from another node of a change in the state of a group to which external connection ports belong, changes the states of the external connection ports to cause external devices to detect the failure of the transmission route. A port state monitor unit classifies external connection ports into groups in advance and stores the correspondence of the external connection ports and the groups. The port state monitor unit then detects changes in the states of external connection ports. When a change of the state of any external connection port is detected in the port state monitor unit, a group state management unit reports state information that includes the states of groups that correspond to the external connection port to other nodes that make up the trunk network. Upon receiving state information from any other node, the group state management unit, in accordance with the states of groups that are included in the state information, changes the states of external connection ports that belong to these groups.

Where each of switches opposed to each other detects optical-signal shutoff or optical-signal deterioration on the reception side of its port, the switch brings a link of the port down and outputs an auto-negotiation configuration code, as an LAN signal. Upon receiving the LAN signal transmitted from the switch, a repeating-transmission apparatus transmits the transmitted signal to an auto-negotiation monitor. The auto-negotiation monitor performs code analysis for the transmitted LAN signal. Where the auto-negotiation monitor detects that the transmitted LAN signal is the auto-negotiation configuration code, it notifies a monitor apparatus that “The switch detects a failure and the link is down.”, as an alarm.

To obtain ring-type network that is capable of sensing a change in the structure of a lower layer network when there is a change, and to obtain a fairness execution program for the ring-type network, which can implement the fairness function in a fine manner even in such case. Each of RPR devices of an RPR network includes a timer, and transmits a periodic transmission request of an LRTT control frame to an LRTT control frame transmitter via an arbitrating part so that the transmitter sends the LRTT control frame to each RPR device regularly. An LRTT control frame receiver receives the returned LRTT control frame, and a round trip propagation time calculator calculates round trip propagation time from a difference between the transmitted time and the received time, and gives the result to a fairness execution part. Thereby, a fine operation of the fairness function is secured.

A communication relay apparatus includes, in a redundant manner, a first board that holds first configuration information including latest setting information in a communication service provided while the first board itself is mounted in a given communication relay apparatus, determines its own operation state upon start-up, and changes to the determined operation state, and a second board that holds second configuration information including latest setting information in a communication service provided while the second board itself is mounted in a given communication relay apparatus, determines its own operation state upon start-up, and changes to the determined operation state, in which each of the first and second boards determines, when neither of the first and second boards is faulty and they are simultaneously started up, the own operation state based on the first and second configuration information.

A communication device includes a plurality of interface units, each of which is associated with at least one media access control (MAC) address and serves as a node connected to a network, a storage unit which stores information indicating a plurality of MAC addresses, and a plurality of control units, each of which notifies one of the plurality of interface units of a MAC address indicated by information read from the storage unit.

In a data transmission system having a plurality of transmitters connected in a ring configuration, a band monitoring unit in each of the plurality of transmitters monitors the bandwidths of a first and a second transmission path between one of the transmitters that comprise the ring and a first and a second transmitter on both sides of said transmitter, respectively. A protection execution unit executes protection processing by setting up a bypass path for each of the first and second transmission paths. Further, when the bandwidth of the first or second transmission path acquired by the band monitoring unit decreases below a threshold, and only when any one of the transmitters comprising the ring and the other transmitters is not executing protection processing, the protection execution unit executes protection processing for the first or second transmission path which is determined to have a bandwidth smaller than the threshold.

A method of detecting a signal degrade of transmission data, a method of detecting a restoration from a signal degrade, and a signal restoration detecting device are provided. The method of detecting a signal degrade includes measuring a discarded data rate of traffic; and comparing said discarded data rate with a threshold value to detect the signal degrade. The method of detecting restoration from a signal degrade includes obtaining a first value by multiplying a threshold value and a multiplier, the threshold value used to detect a signal degrade; and comparing a discarded data rate of a control traffic after a signal degrade with the first value to detect a restoration from the signal degrade. The methods and devices disclosed herein are suitable for precisely determining a signal degrade in a communication system.

A transmission repeater has a function of recovery to normal out of the deadlock state of auto-negotiation sequence between switches. The switches exchange auto-negotiation configuration codes via first and second transmission repeaters for a state transition. The first transmission repeater monitors auto-negotiation configuration codes among data transmitted from the opposed switch, and when detecting more than a predetermined number of configuration codes of auto-negotiation having been transmitted during a given period of time, determines that the auto-negotiation sequence between the switches is at a deadlock, and reports it to the second transmission repeater, which then disconnects optical signals from the sending end of the second transmission repeater to the switch for more than twice the propagation time of signals between the switches, thus resolving the deadlock between the switches.
