Network control device, user terminal, communication system, network control method, and network control program

A tunnel connection is enabled between a user terminal and a service provider using a simpler network configuration.A communication system 10 includes a user terminal 20, a service provider 30, a carrier network 40 that connects the user terminal 20 and the service provider 30 to each other, and a network control device 50 that controls the carrier network 40. The network control device 50 sets respective virtual tunnel end points (VTEPs) for a POI terminal 46 that is on the carrier network 40 and that is connected to the service provider 30 and for the user terminal 20, and sets a virtual tunnel between the virtual tunnel end points. The user terminal 20 communicates with the service provider 30 via the virtual tunnel.
