An IP address delivery system includes an IP address delivery apparatus and a path-information granting unit. The IP address delivery apparatus includes: a path-information reading unit configured to read, from an IP address request signal transmitted from a request source of an IP address, path information of the request source; an IP address correspondence table in which a correspondence relation between the path information and the IP address is registered; and an IP-address determining unit configured to determine, based on the path information and the IP address correspondence table, an IP address delivered to the request source. The path-information granting unit is provided on a communication path between the IP address delivery apparatus and the request source and configured to grant the path information to the IP address request signal transmitted from the request source.
