Abstract
A communication system includes a first communication apparatus including one or more first processors that determine a first bandwidth variance for each flow, based on a requested bandwidth variance amount and a surplus bandwidth of a physical line, and a first transmitter that transmits the first bandwidth variance to an adjacent apparatus; and a second communication apparatus including one or more second processors that set the received first bandwidth variance as a requested bandwidth variance amount for the second communication apparatus and determine a second bandwidth variance for each flow from the first bandwidth variance and the surplus bandwidth, and a second transmitter that transmits the second bandwidth variance to an adjacent apparatus.
