APPARATUS, COMMUNICATION CONTROL SYSTEM, AND COMMUNICATION CONTROL METHOD

摘要

An apparatus includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to establish sessions of communication with a plurality of devices in an upper layer of a communication protocol stack, in response to an access request to a first device out of the plurality of devices, switch coupling to the first device by terminating coupling to a second device out of currently-coupled devices among the plurality of devices in a lower layer of the communication protocol stack while holding the sessions established in the upper layer, and when a predetermined period of time is elapsed after the coupling is switched to the first device, switch the coupling to a predetermined device other than the first device out of the plurality of devices by terminating the coupling to the first device in the lower layer while holding the sessions established in the upper layer.
