  • Patent number: 9282204
    Abstract: A communication apparatus includes an acquisition unit, an instruction accepting unit, a generating unit, and a data transmitting unit. The acquisition unit acquires a transmission-source port number which indicates a transmission source of data and which is determined every time transmission of data is to be performed. The instruction accepting unit accepts an instruction which is an instruction to transmit data via a first communication network or an instruction to transmit data via a second communication network. When the accepted instruction is an instruction to transmit data via the second communication network, the generating unit generates data including the acquired transmission-source port number. The data transmitting unit transmits the generated data via a communication control apparatus connected to the first and second communication networks. The communication control apparatus performs routing so that a route via the first or second communication network is selected for the transmitted data.

  • Patent number: 8717606
    Abstract: A communication apparatus includes a communication start request receiving unit and a response notification output unit. The communication start request receiving unit receives, via a first communication path, a communication start request that is output from a source communication apparatus and is transmitted via a relay apparatus. The response notification output unit outputs a first response notification or a second response notification to the relay apparatus via the first communication path when the communication start request receiving unit receives, via the first communication path, a communication start request for starting communication using a second communication standard in a case where the number of apparatuses with which the communication apparatus is communicating using the second communication standard has reached a predetermined number. The first response notification indicates that communication is being performed.
