Transport system and transport method

摘要

A transport system comprises 2 apparatuses. The first transport apparatus notifies, for each of first physical ports, to the second transport apparatus, a valid first lane count and identification information of the first physical port. The second transport apparatus is configured to: obtain, for each of second physical ports, a valid second lane count and identification information of the second physical port; associate, based on the valid second lane count and the identification information of the second physical port, and the valid first lane count and the identification information of the first physical port, the identification information of the first and second physical port; and transmit, when data including identification information of one of the first physical ports is transmitted, the data from the second physical port that is identified by the identification information associated with the identification information of the one of the first physical ports.

1. A transport system, comprising:
a first transport apparatus for transporting data received by a plurality of first physical ports; and a second transport apparatus for receiving the data transported from the first transport apparatus and transmitting the received data from a plurality of second physical ports, wherein the first transport apparatus notifies, for each of the plurality of first physical ports, to the second transport apparatus, a valid first lane count indicating how many of a plurality of first lanes owned by the first physical port are valid, and identification information of the first physical port that owns the valid first lanes, and wherein the second transport apparatus is configured to:
obtain, for each of the plurality of second physical ports, a valid second lane count indicating how many of a plurality of second lanes owned by the second physical port are valid, and identification information of the second physical port that owns the valid second lanes;associate, based on the valid second lane count and the identification information of the second physical port, and the valid first lane count and the identification information of the first physical port which are notified by the first transport apparatus, the identification information of the first physical port and the identification information of the second physical port; andtransmit, when data including identification information of one of the plurality of first physical ports is transmitted from the first transport apparatus, the data from the second physical port that is identified by the identification information associated with the identification information of the one of the plurality of first physical ports which is included in the data wherein, when the identification information of the first physical port is associated with pieces of identification information of two or more second physical ports out of the plurality of second physical ports, the second transport apparatus associates so that identification information of only one second physical port out of the plurality of second physical ports is associated with the identification information of the first physical port.
