ABSTRACT:
A connected device on an IEEE 1394 serial bus in a network including a data transmission unit that transmits data to a further connected device; a physical connection determining unit that determines physical connection states between connected devices; a logical connection detecting unit that detects all logical connections between the connected devices; a first reduction determining unit that determines whether it is possible to reduce a used bandwidth amount for a certain logical connection by disconnecting a physical connection between connected devices determined to be mutually connected, and by newly connecting connected devices determined to be mutually disconnected; a second reduction determining unit that determines whether it is possible to reduce the used bandwidth amount in the entire network by the physical connection change, to determine candidates of physical connection change for used bandwidth amount reduction; and a display unit that displays a list of the candidates.
