Abstract
A relay device has a plurality of input/output modules each having input/output ports, each input/output module including throughput measuring means for measuring throughput of communication packets received from other input/output modules, and throughput limiting means for limiting throughput of communication packets to be transferred to the other input/output modules on the basis of the throughput measured by the throughput measuring means, wherein the relay device transfers communication packets between the input/output modules to relay the communication packets.
