Relay apparatus and relay method
A relay apparatus includes a memory and a processor coupled with the memory. The processor is configured to determine whether a frame received from a first device is to be discarded. The frame includes first information set at a first communication layer and second information set at a second communication layer different from the first communication layer. The processor is configured to transmit the frame to a second device upon determining that the frame is not to be discarded. The second device is set as a destination in the first information. The processor is configured to extract third information from the second information upon determining that the frame is to be discarded. The processor is configured to output the third information.
