  • Publication number: 20220338137
    Abstract: An acquisition unit (15a) acquires packets passing through an active system path and packets passing through a standby system path. An aggregation unit (15b) aggregates information on the packets using the acquired packets. A determination unit (15c) compares the aggregated information on the packets between the active system path and the standby system path to determine whether there is a difference in state information indicating an operational state in an NF. In a case where it is determined that there is the difference, an instruction unit (15d) instructs an NF of the active system path and an NF of the standby system path facing the NF of the active system path to synchronize the state information.
