Network performance estimating apparatus and network performance estimating method, network configuration checking method, communication managing apparatus, and data communication method

摘要

A network performance estimating apparatus includes a network-configuration depicting unit configured to generate, from a designed network, network configuration information indicating a connection relation of ports among communication apparatuses and store, as attribute information, apparatus identification information including input peculiar information for each communication apparatus name and apparatus type of the communication apparatuses, a communication-apparatus-attribute-information acquiring unit configured to acquire, communication performance of the communication apparatuses specified by the apparatus identification information from peculiar information in which apparatus model names and communication performance are stored in association with each other, a token-circulation-order determining unit configured to determine, from the network configuration information, token circulation order indicating order in a designed network, and a performance estimating unit configured to calculate communication performance of the designed network using the token circulation order and the communication performance of the communication apparatuses.
