A network system of the present invention includes a switch and controllers. The switch processes on a received packet in accordance with a flow entry in which are defined a rule and an action. The controllers set the flow entry to a flow table of the switch. The switch assigns a flow table to each controller, searches when receiving a packet from outside for a flow table matching with the packet in all flow tables, ignores a flow entry set by a controller of which a status of connection is invalid among flow entries matching with the packet and processes the packet in accordance with an action of a flow entry set by a controller of which a status of connection is valid. |
