REPEATING INSTALLATION, AND LOAD DISTRIBUTION AND TRANSMISSION METHOD THEREFOR

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize high-speed load distribution transmission with a compact circuit configuration without the need for referencing a load distribution table. SOLUTION: An output physical port decision section 16 decides an output physical port corresponding to an output logic port decided by a path decision section 14 in the case of receiving a frame from each network and a transmission frame is outputted to the output physical port, and in the case of sending a succeeding reception frame sequentially, a port number increment section 18 increments an output physical port number outputting a transmission frame by a port number increment section 18 for every frame transmission to select an output destination of the transmission frame between output physical ports.
