Abstract
On receipt of communications data from a client with an address modified by the relay device, the source address modification unit of a server (communications device) modifies the source address of data in response to the communications data to the source address registered in a source address modification database. Thus, response data can be directly transmitted to the client without going through the relay device and a communications route can be shortened accordingly.
