Summary:When communication traffic between communication devices is shaped by a relay device on a network, the communication speed of a transport layer is prevented from being dramatically reduced as compared to the shaped traffic on a network with a high error rate. On the basis of the SID of data received from a communication device and a data size, a relay device predicts the SID expected to be received for the next time in the same communication, compares the predicted SID with another SID included in data received for the next time, and releases the shaped traffic for the data if the received SID is smaller than the predicted SID. Further, when consecutively receiving a given number or larger of pieces of data which are larger than the predicted SID, the relay device releases the shaped traffic for the data.
