ABSTRACT:
Each network control section sequentially writes, into a common memory, data items included in a transmission frame output from each network, outputs a notification to notify start of writing and a notification to notify completion of normal writing, reads the transmission frame stored in the common memory in response to a transmission command, and transmits the read transmission frame to a corresponding network. When a C.T mode is set, a route control section receives the notification to notify start of writing from each network control section, and outputs a transmission command to a network control section corresponding to a destination network designated by a destination address included in the transmission frame. Further, when an S.F mode is set, the route control section receives the notification to notify completion of normal writing from each network control section, and outputs the transmission command to the network control section corresponding to the destination network designated by the destination address included in the transmission frame.
