<p>According to an embodiment, a connection management device (100) is in a communication system in which a plurality of relay devices (200A, 200B) are provided for relaying communication between two terminal devices (300A, 300B) associated with each other in advance. The connection management device determines the relay device with which each of the terminal devices should establish connection and notifies each of the terminal devices of the determination result. The connection management device includes a first storage, an update unit, a request reception unit, and a determination unit. The first storage stores therein state information including at least one of a loaded condition and terminal connection number with respect to each of the plurality of relay devices. The update unit updates the first storage in accordance with a predetermined rule. The request reception unit receives, from any one of the terminal devices, a determination request of the relay device with which the terminal device should establish connection. The determination unit determines the relay device with which the terminal device making the determination request should establish connection, based on the state information stored in the first storage.</p> |
