    Abstract: In a multi-ring communication network, first and second rings include first and second connection nodes, respectively, that are adjacently connected to each other. The first connection node receives, from adjacent nods, traffic information storing a pair of input and output node identifiers in association with each of storage areas included in a frame to be transmitted, where the input node identifier identifies an adjacent node from which data is inputted, and the output node identifier identifies an adjacent node to which the data is outputted. When the received traffic information includes the output node identifier identifying the second connection node, the first connection node sets a plurality of redundant path segments each including the second connection node, based on the received traffic information, where the plurality of redundant path segments includes a currently-used path segment.

    Abstract: A plurality of nodes are connected to one another so as to form a ring network. A pseudo master node blocks relay of user data on one side, and transmits in the ring network a health packet that contains information about a priority order in which the pseudo master node is to be set as a master node. If the pseudo master node receives the health packet transmitted by it, or receives a health packet transmitted by another node, the pseudo master node judges whether the pseudo master node is to be set as a master node based on the priority order contained in the received health packet.

    Abstract: A conventional edge device is constituted of a switching device and a transmission device. The switching device determines an ODU as an accommodation destination for an L2 packet from a client side device in accordance with an L2 ID, and outputs the L2 packet to an output port to which the ODU is associated. The transmission device receives an L2 packet through an input port corresponding to an output port of the switching device in a one-to-one manner, and performs transparent mapping on the corresponding ODU so as to output the signal by using an ODU connection.
