Abstract
[Problem]The problem is to carry out the QoS control which tracks a change in a state of an outward line.[Means for solving the problem]A network repeater according to the present invention includes: a flow control means to carry out flow control for restricting inflow of a data flow which is received through an inward line; a bandwidth control means to carry out bandwidth control of controlling a bandwidth of a data flow which is received through the inward line and is sent through an outward line; and an outward line monitoring means to monitor a change in a state of the outward line. In the case that the monitored state of the outward line satisfies a specified condition which is determined in advance, either the flow control or the bandwidth control is carried out on a condition corresponding to the specified condition.
