Abstract
An end-to-end path can be set without providing a hierarchy in a control device of a multi-domain network. A path setting system () includes an orchestratorand a control device (). The orchestrator () generates path candidates corresponding to a line of domains through which paths that are candidates for a path pass and transmits the path candidates to control devices () of domains through which the path candidates pass to request setting of the path. The control device () acquires, from the control devices () of other domains through which path candidates pass, metrics of the path candidates in the domains, calculates total metrics, selects an optimum path, and sets the optimum path.
