A switch device for relaying flow data in an in-vehicle network, being equipped with an acquiring section for acquiring correspondence information indicating at least a correspondence relationship among a transmission destination IP address, a transmission source IP address, transmission destination port information, transmission source port information and a transmission destination MAC address and a relay section for acquiring the transmission destination MAC address from the correspondence information on the basis of the transmission destination IP address, the transmission source IP address, the transmission destination port information and the transmission source port information included in a frame that is received by the switch device and constitutes the flow data and for performing transmission processing to transmit the frame including the acquired transmission destination MAC address.

Switch device and communication control method

A switching device relays data in an on-vehicle network and has a plurality of communication ports. The switching device comprises: a detection unit that detects a failure in communication with another switching device connected to one of the communication ports; and a processing unit that transmits failure information indicating at least any one of a site where the failure in communication occurs and a communication port to be used when the failure in communication occurs by a target switching device being a switching device different from said another switching device, to the target switching device if the failure in communication is detected by the detection unit.
