Priority control is performed using FPIs. A radio base station eNB according to the present invention includes: a bearer management unit 12 configured to manage FPIs assigned to data flows received from a core network device S-GW via an S1 bearer; and a priority control unit 13 configured to perform priority control over the data flows received from the core network device S-GW via the S1 bearer, in which the bearer management unit 12 establishes a radio bearer with a mobile station UE for each of the FPIs, and the priority control unit 13 transfers each data flow received from the core network device S-GW via the S1 bearer, to the radio bearer corresponding to the FPI assigned to the data flow.

High-speed processing of packets to and from a virtualization environment can be provided while utilizing segmentation offload and other such functionality of hardware such as a network interface card. Virtualization information can be added to extension portions of protocol headers, for example, such that the payload portion is unchanged. The virtualization information can be hashed and added to the payload or stream at, or relative to, various segmentation boundaries, such that the virtualization or additional header information will only be added to a subset of the segmented data frames, thereby reducing the necessary overhead. Further, the hashing of the information can allow for reconstruction of the virtualization information upon desegmentation even in the event of packet loss.
