Abstract:
An object is to provide a relay apparatus capable of detecting a failure that occurs in the relay apparatus. A relay apparatus ( 10 ) according to the present disclosure includes a data reception unit ( 11 ) configured to receive a synchronizing packet transmitted from a master apparatus ( 20 ), the synchronizing packet containing a time value and a time correction value for correcting the time value, an update unit ( 12 ) configured to update the time correction value based on a processing time for the synchronizing packet, and a determination unit ( 13 ) configured to determine whether or not a failure has occurred in a functional block related to a process for updating the time correction value by using a result of a comparison between a corrected time value and a reference time value, the corrected time value having been corrected by using the updated time correction value.

Claim (Index 5):
The relay apparatus according to  claim 1 , further comprising:\n a first clock unit implemented at least by the hardware and configured to supply an internal time to the update unit, wherein the determination unit determines a time at which the synchronizing packet in which the time correction value has been updated is received by using an internal time value supplied from outside of the relay apparatus, and uses the internal time value supplied from outside of the relay apparatus as the reference time value.
