An optical transmission device that is connected to transmission paths of a network, that performs optical communication according to a wavelength division multiplex format and that transmits optical signals over the transmission paths according to path types that have been set to wavelengths of the optical signals, including an upper limit value storage section that stores an upper limit value of the number of operational wavelengths that is the number of wavelengths to which the path types are set; an acceptance section that accepts a changing request that requests that the number of operational wavelengths be changed; and a license determination section that decides the number of operational wavelengths, wherein if the number of wavelengths that has been changed according to the accepted changing request is equal to or smaller than the stored upper limit value, the license determination section newly sets the changed number of wavelengths for the number of operational wavelengths.
