Title:
ROUTING CONTROL DEVICE AND NETWORK
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/068618
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This routing control device is provided with a network control unit for setting the route of a packet in a software defined network (SDN) having a connection relation with other networks, and further provided with a direct flow connection unit for reconstructing the route of a packet so that a packet inputted from another network to the SND network and having had a route set along which the packet is transmitted via a network appliance from an input place where the packet is inputted to the SDN network to an output place where the packet is outputted from the SDN network is transmitted directly from the input place to the output place without going via the network appliance. This configuration allows settings to be changed to a route that does not go via the network appliance, and makes it possible to construct a network using a network appliance which is inexpensive and the processing capacity of which is not high.
