Abstract

[Object] To provide a communication control device configured to efficiently secure bands of an IP network in order to transmit data streams.[Solution] There is provided a communication control device including: a channel information acquisition unit configured to acquire, when AV streams are transmitted from a plurality of transmission apparatuses to one or more reception apparatuses on an IP network while being switched, all channel information from the transmission apparatuses to the reception apparatuses; a traffic calculation unit configured to calculate a maximum traffic generated in switching patterns of the transmission of the AV streams from the transmission apparatuses to the reception apparatuses, on the basis of the channel information acquired by the channel information acquisition unit; and a transmission band reservation unit configured to reserve a transmission band on the IP network, on the basis of the maximum traffic calculated by the traffic calculation unit.
