ABSTRACT:
A transmitting apparatus includes a network interface for connecting between networks; an information embedding unit that embeds, in a frame output from the network interface, first port information for identifying a first port through which the frame is received; and a path deciding unit that decides, when second port information for designating a second port that is an output destination of the frame is embedded in the frame received through the network interface, to output the frame to the second port.
