Abstract: A base station apparatus installed by a general user, wherein a cell ID can be easily set in cases when setting of a cell ID is necessary. In this apparatus, a DHCP message reception unit (105) receives a DHCPACK message from a DHCP server. An IP address extraction unit (107) extracts an IP address stored in the IP address field of the DHCPACK message. A cell ID determining unit (108) sets a unique cell ID for this base station apparatus based on the IP address extracted by the IP address extraction unit (107).

Abstract: A repeater for transferring same-destination frames that are addressed to a destination Electronic Control Unit (ECU) efficiently by receiving the frames from respectively different ports, includes: four ports; and a switcher, wherein the first and second ports respectively originating a communication path to an individual ECU, and the third and fourth ports respectively connected to an individual ECU that is different from the one connected the first and second ports, and when the same-destination frames are received by the third and fourth ports of the repeater at the same time, the switcher distributes the same-destination frames among the first and second ports to be transferred via two, i.e., different, communication paths toward one, i.e., same, destination ECU.

Abstract: The present document discloses a notification method and device and an acquisition device for a MAC address of ESADI. The method includes: a RB issuing a MAC address which is reachable natively by the RB via a LSP of the ESADI; and Step 204: the RB notifying multiple RBs which correspond to the MAC address and belong to the same MC-LAG by way of a MAC-Reachability TLV extension of the LSP. The present document solves the problem in the related technology that the RB is unable to notify the remote RB of native multi-chassis RB IDs when accessing the TRILL network by a multi-chassis access, so that the remote RB can acquire which RBs belong to the same MC-LAG, thereby improving the flexibility of the processing manner.
