<p>A transmission terminal has a plurality of congestion control units (RPs) each controlling a frame transmission rate. A switch arranged between the transmission terminal and a reception terminal has a plurality of congestion detection units (CPs) each generating a congestion information notification frame addressed to the transmission terminal. A plurality of routes exist between the transmission terminal and the reception terminal. The management computer manages a correspondence relationship between the routes and the RPs, assigns any of the routes to a flow, selects a RP associated with a route assigned to the flow, and notifies the transmission terminal and the switch of the flow and the selected RP. When the switch receives a frame belonging to the flow, a CP associated with the selected RP generates the congestion information notification frame addressed to the selected RP. The transmission terminal transmits a frame belonging to the flow through the selected RP.</p> |
