Abstract:
The second communication device is in one level higher in a logical network forming a tree structure and sends data to the first communication device. The third communication device is in two or more levels higher in the logical network. The third device is configured to send data to the first communication device without passing through the second communication device. The first communication devices comprises a monitoring unit and a connection switching unit. The monitoring unit is configured to monitor an operation state of the second communication device. The connection switching unit is configured to send a request for sending data to the third communication device, in a case that the normal operation state of the second communication device is not confirmed by the monitoring unit.

Claim (Index 7):
A communication control method of a first communication device of a data delivery system comprising a plurality of communication devices, comprising the first communication device, a second communication device, and a third communication device, and performing data delivery using a logical network forming a tree structure, the second communication device being in one level higher than the first communication device in the logical network and sending data to the first communication device, the third communication device being in two or more levels higher than the first communication device in the logical network and being configured to send data to the first communication device without passing through the second communication device, comprising:\n monitoring an operation state of the second communication device; and sending a request for sending data to the third communication device, in a case that the normal operation state of the second communication device is not confirmed.
