<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To utilize an existing communication terminal which is not adapted to a session control protocol, in a management type network. <P>SOLUTION: When a multicast participation request is received, a cooperating function 161 specifies a multicast stream by using a multicast address; or the like; specifies a multicast packet to which the stream belongs; extracts other stream relating information, such as, required band; prepares a session establishment request on the basis of the information; and transmits it to a control server 14. The cooperating function 161 transmits the multicast participation request (5) to a transfer node 13, when a session establishment response (4) from the control server 14 is a "success" and does not transmit the multicast participation request to the transfer node 13, when it is a "failure". <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT</p> |
