Abstract
A layer 2 (L2) switch receives session information and destination information included in upstream communication transmitted from a network device, and compresses the received session information and destination information. Then, the L2 switch stores compressed information that has been compressed, into a memory unit that stores a session table to be referred to when downstream communication is received.
