A switching node (MGS) 1 connected to a relay network 5 has a table 37 prestoring bandwidth control parameter values in correspondence with the size of data transferred via the relay network. When a request for accessing a remote storage apparatus is received, the switching node obtains the bandwidth control parameter values adapted to the transfer data size indicated by the access request are obtained from the table 37, and automatically sets a path having an optimum bandwidth on the relay network by using the parameter values. The path is automatically released when the data transfer is finished.
