| 摘要 |
The present invention makes contribution to solution of problems derived from transmission of a control information entry setting request triggered by packet reception. A communication node includes an entry memory capable of retaining a control information entry stipulating a processing to be applied to a packet received, a packet processor referencing the entry memory to process the packet received, and a request suppressing unit. Triggered by reception of a packet, the request suppressing unit requests a preset control apparatus to set a control information entry, and subsequently suppresses control information entry setting requests for a preset time for packets having a characteristic in common with the packet for which the control information entry setting request was made to the preset control apparatus. |
