1. A communication device comprising:
circuitry configured to
receive packets via a communication interface;control storing each of the packets in corresponding queues of a working path in accordance with a priority corresponding to each of the packets;control storing a copied packet corresponding to each of the packets in corresponding queues of a protection path in accordance with the priority corresponding to each of the packets out of synchronization with a timing of the storing each of the packets in the corresponding queues of the working path;determine whether a packet and a copied packet identified by a same identifier are stored in each of one of the queues of the working path and one of the queues of the protection path;prioritize packets having the same identifier stored in the queues of the working path and the queues of the protection path based on a priority control and the priority corresponding to the packets;convert a packet identified by the same identifier into another format in accordance with order complying with the priority control; andtransmit a converted data resulting from the conversion.
