<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a communication apparatus which avoids broadcast generation caused by a matching conflict in a search table. <P>SOLUTION: Frame identifying portions 122 and 132 copy frames in the case that an output port decided by an input port or switch functioning portions 121 and 131 belongs to a link aggregation group, output the frames from the output port decided by the switch functioning portions 121 and 131, and at the same time, transfer the copied frames to header editing portions 123 and 133. The header editing portions 123 and 133 prepare in-apparatus headers comprised of fields to indicate whether they are the copied frames and the fields to store an input port number, add the fields to the frames and then transfer them to other frame transferring portions 13 and 12. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
