ABSTRACT:
The communication device includes a transmission node connected to a transmission network, and a control node connected to a control network for controlling the transmission on the transmission network and setting the transmission of the transmission node, and the control node has a control link collecting unit collecting link information on the control network, a transmission link collecting unit collecting link information on the transmission network, a selection unit selecting, when determining a route from the transmission node to another transmission node as a terminating node outside the area, any one of the boundary control nodes as an egress node becoming an egress in a direction of the area, to which the terminating node belongs, based on the link information on the control network, and a determination unit determining a route to the egress node based on the link information on the transmission network.
