Abstract

A control apparatus includes an optical wavelength change control unit that specifies, in response to a request to change a wavelength band of a first optical wavelength path used by a first transmission apparatus and a second transmission apparatus to a wavelength band of a second optical wavelength path, a first route between routers which is affected by the request and a service which uses the first route and that specifies a second route between the routers which detours the specified service; a router control unit that transmits a request to detour the specified service to the second route, to a start-point router and an end-point router on the first route; and a transmission apparatus control unit that transmits a request to change the wavelength band of the first optical wavelength path to the wavelength band of the second optical wavelength path, to the first transmission apparatus and the second transmission apparatus.
