PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a transmission apparatus which achieves a large scale node having a multi-route configuration easily from existing devices, and can distribute the information managed at the large scale node.SOLUTION: The transmission apparatus comprises a plurality of nodes 1-4 connected, respectively, with a plurality of main signal transmission lines ML01-ML08 and interconnected via inter-node connection lines IL01-IL06. The plurality of nodes 1-4 comprise: respectively, holding means (15) for holding the setting information of the input point and output point for each preset wavelength; transfer means (13) for broadcasting an input signal from the main signal transmission line to all other nodes via the inter-node connection line; and determination means (14) for processing the signal broadcast from other node via the inter-node connection line based on the setting information of the holding means. |
