Apparatus and method for relaying communication between nodes coupled through relay devices

摘要

An apparatus is configured to relay communication between first and second nodes that area coupled through a plurality of relay devices. The apparatus generates control information indicating that communication from the second node to the first node is to be performed via the computer, in response to request for migration of relay processing from another apparatus to the apparatus, the relay processing including relaying communication between the first and second nodes, and sends the generated control information to the plurality of relay devices.

主权项

1. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having stored therein a program for causing a computer to execute a process comprising:
performing relay processing by the computer from a first server, the relay processing including relaying communication between a first node and a second node based on relay rules, the first node belonging to a network different than the second node and the first node and the second node being coupled through a plurality of relay devices; migrating the relay processing to a migration destination in response to a request from a second computer for migrating the relay processing; generating control information indicating communication from the second node to the first node is to be performed by the computer from the migration destination; and sending the generated control information to the plurality of relay devices.
