Abstract
A relay device relays between two TCP communication items of a LAN side and a WAN side. When a line bandwidth of the WAN side is smaller than a line bandwidth of the LAN side, buffer overflow in a LAN side reception buffer and a WAN side transmission buffer of the relay device is prevented, and a connection is prevented from being forced to be canceled. A value of a reception window size (rwnd) described in an ACK packet returned to a transmission terminal of the LAN side is controlled based on a transmission throughput, a discarding rate, and an RTT measured in TCP communication of the WAN side, and a total size of unarranged data and a size of arranged data in a reception buffer of the LAN side and a size of untransmitted data and ACK awaiting data in a transmission buffer of the WAN side.
