ABSTRACT:
A host computer includes a segment table for storing therein a plurality of sets constructed by designated address information and maximum segment sizes corresponding thereto, and a connection end point functioning as a region to store destination network address and transmission data. A segment table generator generates the segment table. A maximum segment size reader sequentially reads the contents of the segment table when a connection is established. An optimal segment size determinator determines a maximum segment size for data transmission based on the content read from the segment table and the destination address, and stores this determined maximum segment size into a connection end point as an optimal segment size. A data transmitter transmits data to a destination in accordance with the optimal segment size stored in the connection end point.
