To reduce transmission load on a communication channel at the time of transmission of control information to multiple information processing units. A control information transmitting unit (11a) of an information processing unit (10a) transmits a control packet (20) including control information (21) and destination information that designates one or more information processing units as destinations of the control information (21). In the case where, in the received control packet (20), the information processing unit (10b) is designated as a destination of the control information (21), a control information receiving unit (12b) of the information processing unit (10b) imports the control information from the control packet (20), and modifies the control packet (20) in such a manner that the destination information does not designate the information processing unit (10b) as a destination of the control information (21) and transmits the modified control packet (20). On the other hand, if the information processing unit (10b) is not designated as a destination of the control information (21), the control information receiving unit (12b) simply transmits the received control packet (20). |
