Abstract
A system includes a first apparatus and a second apparatus connected via a transmission path. The first apparatus includes a transmitting unit that transmits a request as at least one packet and retransmits the at least one request packet if a time period between the request and a response is not less than a predetermined time period; and a receiving unit that receives the response as at least one response packet and discards any error packet and any redundant packet from among the received at least one response packet. The second apparatus includes: a receiving unit that receives the at least one request packet and discards any error packet from among the received at least one request packet; and a transmitting unit that determines a response type, selectively makes the at least one response packet redundant for any response of a specific type, and transmits the redundant response packets.
