Abstract
FSs (to) are each connected to IFSs (to). Each of the FSs (to) transmits a setting frame () that includes an FS number to the connected IFSs (to). Each of the IFSs (to) registers, in an LAG setting table, the FS numbers included in the received setting frames () and ports that have received the same in association with each other. Then, each of the IFSs (to) sorts ports (to) in an order of the associated FS numbers, and sets each of LAGs (to) in a common order.
