Abstract
A network system has: a node performing transmission/reception of a frame based on FCoE; a network; a controller performing management of the node and the network; and a gateway provided with respect to the node. The frame is classified into a control frame and a data frame. The gateway determines whether a frame received from the node is the control frame or the data frame, forwards the control frame to the controller, and forwards the data frame to the network. The controller performs the management based on the control frame received from the gateway. The network transfers the data frame received from the gateway to a destination node without through the controller. The node has a retransmission control and reordering unit configured to perform retransmission control and reordering processing with respect to the data frame.
