In this paper, the rich feedback theory of regular linear systems in the Salamon-Weiss sense as well as some advanced tools in semigroup theory are used to formulate and solve control problems for network systems. In fact, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for approximate controllability of such systems. These criteria, in some particular cases, are given by the well-known Kalman's controllability rank condition.

Keywords: Boundary systems, boundary perturbations, controllability, network systems, Kalman's controllability rank condition.
