ABSTRACT:
A relay device10is a relay device for relaying a communication message on a packet-by-packet basis, which comprises an order determiner13for determining whether a packet received is one received in an order to be received, a packet holder14for, when it is determined that the packet is not one received in the order to be received, holding the packet, and for performing such a control as to relay the packet, a merger15for merging a payload of the received packet with a payload of the held packet, a verifier16for verifying whether a payload of a packet satisfies a predetermined rule, and a relay controller17for, when a packet satisfies the rule, performing such a control as to execute relay of the packet. This prevents an increase of a communication delay and enables detection of an irregular communication message in an application layer protocol, irrespective of types of protocols.
