Abstract
This optical path setting device comprises: a transmission characteristic calculating means for calculating an inter-endpoint transmission characteristic that is a characteristic for transmission between endpoints of an optical path accommodating traffic in a plurality of optical communication systems; a required wavelength bandwidth determining means for determining a required wavelength bandwidth that is a wavelength bandwidth meeting an arrival performance of the optical path on the basis of the inter-endpoint transmission characteristic; and an accommodating wavelength band determining means for determining, as an accommodating wavelength band for accommodating the optical path, a common wavelength band that is a wavelength band where an optical path having the required wavelength bandwidth can be allocated, and that is common to the plurality of optical communication systems.
