PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To shorten a selection time in selection of a master port of a loop from a plurality of devices constituting the loop in an FC-AL system. SOLUTION: This FC-AL switch 201 connects a plurality of devices in a loop as a plurality of ports constituting an FC-AL loop. The FC-AL switch 201 is provided with a loop configuration storage part 301 holding a loop configuration history, which specifies a port of the loop and a device connected to the port, and a port name of a device selected as a master port for deciding an address of each device connected to the loop, and a control part 302 selecting the master port of the loop configured in the previous time as the master port for the loop to be configured this time based on the loop configuration history and the master port in the loop configuration storage part 301 when the loop is initialized.
