Control device, control method, computer program product, and communication system
According to one embodiment, a control device includes one or more processors. The one or more processors receive a message. The one or more processors determine whether the received message has been replicated and transmitted. The one or more processors instruct recording of difference information between a message before replication and the received message when it is determined that the received message has been replicated and transmitted.
1. A control device, comprising:
one or more processors configured to
receive a message;
determine whether the received message is one of messages that are replicated by another control device, each of the messages being transmitted by the another control device to the control device via a different corresponding route; and
instruct recording of a difference between a particular recorded message of the messages and the received message that is determined to be one of the messages,
wherein the one or more processors do not record the received message that is determined to be the one of the messages,
wherein the one or more processors are further configured to
determine whether the received message is an object to be recorded, and
determine whether a message determined as an object to be recorded is the one of the messages.
2. The control device according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to
determine whether the received message is an object to be recorded in a recording device connected via a network, and
instruct recording of the difference between the particular recorded message and the received message that is the object to be recorded in the recording device and is the one of the messages.
3. The control device according to claim 2 , wherein
the one or more processors are further configured to determine whether the received message has been transmitted via the recording device based on a connection relationship with the recording device to determine whether the received message is the object to be recorded in the recording device.
4. The control device according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to instruct recording of accompanying information of the received message.
5. The control device according to claim 4 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to instruct the recording of the accompanying information, which includes at least one of a reception time of a message and information to detect an error of the message.
6. The control device according to claim 4 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to
determine whether the received message is an object to be recorded in a recording device connected via a network, and
instruct recording of the accompanying information of the received message that is not the object to be recorded in the recording device and is the one of the messages.
7. The control device according to claim 6 , wherein
the one or more processors are configured to instruct recording of the accompanying information of the received message that is the object to be recorded in the recording device and is one of the messages, after recording of the accompanying information has been instructed.
8. The control device according to claim 1 , wherein the recorded message of the messages is a message recorded in a recording device connected via a network.
9. The control device according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to instruct recording of the received message that is determined not to be the one of the messages.
10. A control device, comprising:
one or more processors configured to
receive a message;
determine whether the received message is one of messages that are replicated by another control device, each of the messages being transmitted by the another control device to the control device via a different corresponding route; and
instruct recording of difference information indicative of a difference between a particular recorded message of the messages and the received message that is determined to be one of the messages, and instruct recording of the received message that is determined not to be the one of the messages, wherein
the one or more processors are further configured to
determine whether the received message is an object to be recorded in a recording device connected via a network,
instruct recording of the difference information corresponding to the received message that is determined to be the object to be recorded in the recording device and is the one of the messages,
determine whether the received message has been transmitted via the recording device based on a connection relationship with the recording device to determine whether the received message is the object to be recorded in the recording device,
determine whether the received message is an object to be recorded, and
determine whether a message determined as an object to be recorded is the one of the messages.
11. The control device according to claim 10 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to instruct recording of accompanying information of the received message.
12. The control device according to claim 10 , wherein the recorded message of the messages is a message recorded in a recording device connected via a network.
13. A control device, comprising:
one or more processors configured to
receive a message;
determine whether the received message is one of messages that are replicated by another control device, each of the messages being transmitted by the another control device to the control device via a different corresponding route; and
instruct recording of difference information indicative of a difference between a particular recorded message of the messages and the received message that is determined to be one of the messages, and instruct recording of the received message that is determined not to be the one of the messages, wherein
the one or more processors are further configured to instruct recording of accompanying information of the received message, and
the one or more processors are configured to instruct the recording of the accompanying information, which includes at least one of a reception time of a message and information to detect an error of the message,
wherein the one or more processors are further configured to
determine whether the received message is an object to be recorded in a recording device connected via a network, and
instruct recording of the accompanying information corresponding to the received message that is determined to be the object to be recorded in the recording device and that is determined to be the one of the messages.
14. The control device according to claim 13 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to instruct recording of the accompanying information of the received message that is the object to be recorded in the recording device and is the one of the messages, after recording of the accompanying information has been instructed.
