Abstract: A relay device relays a management frame between nodes connected to mutually different communication buses. The relay device includes (i) communicator units provided respectively to correspond to the communication buses, and (ii) communication controller units provided respectively to correspond to the communicator units. The communication controller unit respectively includes a corresponding transmission buffer configured to store the management frame, which is to be transmitted from the communicator unit corresponding to the communication controller unit. In response to determining that the management frame is retained in the transmission buffer corresponding to the communication controller unit, the communication controller unit transmits the management frame, which is received at a present time and stored in the transmission buffer, from the communicator unit corresponding to the communication controller unit.
