摘要： In a first node in a system having nodes connected to each other as a network, request information including identification information and request number of location information indicating a location in the network of information saving nodes is transmitted to a second node. In the second node, the location information and identification information are saved. At least the location information whose number corresponds to the request number is transmitted to the first node when the number of the saved location information meets the request number. Otherwise, the location information whose number corresponds to the number of the saved location information is transmitted to the first node. The received request information is transferred when the second node itself is not a management node, to a node interposed between the second node and the management node, or to the management node when there is no node therebetween.

摘要： A connection state control device is provided that can promptly perform a reproducing operation by smoothly switching channels at each node and reduce the load on the management server in a case where operations are performed so as to sequentially change distribution information to be received at each node in a network system having a tree structure. A node receives content being distributed over a network, and performs an operation of reproducing the received content. When the node is to receive different content being distributed over a different network, the node is connected to the different network. After that, the node receives and reproduces the different content. The node continues to receive the original content but suspends the operation of reproducing the original content after connected to the different network.
