  • Communication apparatus and communication method
    Patent number: 9667482
    Abstract: A communication apparatus includes: a detection unit to detect a change in a port state of a physical path; a calculation unit to calculate a predicted amount of traffic to be allocated to the physical path for each of classes prioritized with predefined priorities within the traffic when the change in the port state is detected, and to calculate a bandwidth allocation ratio to a physical bandwidth of the physical path, for each of the classes to be allocated for the physical path according to the calculated predicted amount of traffic for each of the classes; a setting unit to set the calculated bandwidth allocation ratio for each of the classes; and a control unit to control a flow rate of the traffic for each of the classes to be flowed in the physical path according to the set bandwidth allocation ratio for each of the classes.
