In-vehicle communication device, and communication control method
An in-vehicle communication device is an in-vehicle communication device that performs a relay process of relaying data between functional units in an in-vehicle network, and includes a communication unit that performs the relay process using correspondence information indicating a correspondence relation between an Internet protocol (IP) address and a media access control (MAC) address of one or more functional units, an address managing unit that generates the correspondence information, and an authenticating unit that performs an authentication process for the functional unit, in which the authenticating unit performs the authentication process for the functional unit in which an IP address and a MAC address are newly registered in the correspondence information by the address managing unit, and the address managing unit deletes the correspondence relation of the functional unit from the correspondence information when the authentication process for the newly registered functional unit is not successfully performed.
1. An in-vehicle communication device that performs a relay process of relaying data between functional units in an in-vehicle network, comprising:
a communication unit that performs the relay process using correspondence information indicating a correspondence relation between an Internet protocol (IP) address and a media access control (MAC) address of one or more functional units;
an address managing unit that generates the correspondence information; and
an authenticating unit that performs an authentication process for the functional unit,
wherein the authenticating unit performs the authentication process for the functional unit in which an IP address and a MAC address are newly registered in the correspondence information by the address managing unit, and
the address managing unit maintains the correspondence relation of the functional unit in the correspondence information when the authentication process for the newly registered functional unit is successfully performed, and deletes the correspondence relation of the functional unit from the correspondence information when the authentication process for the newly registered functional unit is not successfully performed.
2. The in-vehicle communication device according to claim 1 , wherein the address managing unit registers a correspondence relation between a transmission source IP address and a transmission source MAC address included in a data field of a frame of a layer 2 received from the functional unit via the communication unit in the correspondence information, and
the address managing unit does not register the correspondence relation in the correspondence information or deletes the correspondence relation from the correspondence information when the transmission source MAC address does not coincide with a transmission source MAC address included in a header of the frame.
3. The in-vehicle communication device according to claim 1 , wherein the address managing unit does not permit rewriting of the newly registered correspondence relation until a predetermined condition is satisfied after the authentication process for the newly registered functional unit is successfully performed.
4. The in-vehicle communication device according to claim 3 , wherein the predetermined condition is a condition that communication of the newly registered functional unit is interrupted for a predetermined period or more.
5. An in-vehicle communication device that performs a relay process of relaying data between functional units in an in-vehicle network, comprising:
a communication unit that performs the relay process using correspondence information indicating a correspondence relation between an IP address and a MAC address of one or more functional units; and
an address managing unit that generates the correspondence information,
wherein the address managing unit registers a correspondence relation between a transmission source IP address and a transmission source MAC address included in a data field of a frame of a layer 2 received from the functional unit via the communication unit in the correspondence information, and
the address managing unit does not register the correspondence relation in the correspondence information or deletes the correspondence relation from the correspondence information when the transmission source MAC address does not coincide with a transmission source MAC address included in a header of the frame.
6. An in-vehicle communication device that performs a relay process of relaying data between functional units in an in-vehicle network, comprising:
a communication unit that performs the relay process using correspondence information indicating a correspondence relation between an IP address and a MAC address of one or more functional units;
an address managing unit that generates the correspondence information; and
an authenticating unit that performs an authentication process for the functional unit,
wherein the authenticating unit performs the authentication process for the functional unit in which an IP address and a MAC address are newly registered in the correspondence information by the address managing unit, and
the address managing unit does not permit rewriting of the newly registered correspondence relation until a predetermined condition is satisfied after the authentication process for the newly registered functional unit is successfully performed.
7. A communication control method in an in-vehicle communication device that performs a relay process of relaying data between functional units in an in-vehicle network, comprising:
performing the relay process using correspondence information indicating a correspondence relation between an IP address and a MAC address of one or more functional units;
generating the correspondence information; and
performing an authentication process for the functional unit,
wherein, in the generating the correspondence information, an IP address and a MAC address are newly registered in the correspondence information,
in the performing the authentication process, the authentication process is performed for the functional unit in which an IP address and a MAC address are newly registered in the correspondence information, and
the communication control method further comprises:
maintaining the correspondence relation of the functional unit in the correspondence information when the authentication process for the newly registered functional unit is successfully performed, and
deleting the correspondence relation of the functional unit from the correspondence information when the authentication process for the newly registered functional unit is not successfully performed.
8. A communication control method in an in-vehicle communication device that performs a relay process of relaying data between functional units in an in-vehicle network, comprising:
performing the relay process using correspondence information indicating a correspondence relation between an IP address and a MAC address of one or more functional units; and
generating the correspondence information,
wherein, in the generating the correspondence information, a correspondence relation between a transmission source IP address and a transmission source MAC address included in a data field of a frame of a layer 2 received from the functional unit is registered in the correspondence information, and
the communication control method further comprises not registering the correspondence relation in the correspondence information or deleting the correspondence relation from the correspondence information when the transmission source MAC address does not coincide with a transmission source MAC address included in a header of the frame.
9. A communication control method in an in-vehicle communication device that performs a relay process of relaying data between functional units in an in-vehicle network, comprising:
performing the relay process using correspondence information indicating a correspondence relation between an IP address and a MAC address of one or more functional units;
generating the correspondence information; and
performing an authentication process for the functional unit,
wherein, in the generating the correspondence information, an IP address and a MAC address are newly registered in the correspondence information,
in the performing the authentication process, the authentication process is performed for the functional unit in which an IP address and a MAC address are newly registered in the correspondence information, and
the communication control method further comprises not permitting rewriting of the newly registered correspondence relation until a predetermined condition is satisfied after the authentication process for the newly registered functional unit is successfully performed.
