A WAN node device includes a failure monitoring unit that monitors failure in a first LAN-side input-output unit and a second LAN-side input-output unit. If failure in the first LAN-side input-output unit or the second LAN-side input-output unit is detected, failure is notified to a switching controller. Upon receiving a failure notification, the switching controller selects a normally functioning LAN-side input-output unit. Thus, the WAN node device passes on packets to a LAN-communication linking device via either the first LAN-side input-output unit or the second LAN-side input-output unit selected by the switching controller.
