A connection control method is implemented by a communication system including a UE, two or more SGWs, and an MME for performing processing related to establishment and release of communication paths between the two or more SGWs and the UE. The connection control method includes a request reception in which the MME receives an establishment request of a communication path associated with the UE from one SGW, a path establishment starting processing related to establishment of communication paths between the UE and all SGWs, and an information updating in which the MME updates information related to an establishment status of the communication path stored in a storage unit on the basis of a result of establishing the communication path.
