■■ IP Network Address Translator (NAT) router protocol which allows nodes on a private network to transparently communicate with nodes on an external network and vice versa.

DNS is implemented as a distributed database of host names. ■■ The Domain Name System (DNS) enables an application level program to map a high-level domain name to an IP address and vice versa. Internet Key Exchange (IKE), a security protocol designed to automate management of Security Automation (SA). ■■ Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) services and policy definitions. To further increase the usability of VSTAR Ethernet, it may be extended with the following features (only a partial list): ■■ Network cryptographic protocols: Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). Implementing Ethernet for AUTOSAR Mentor Graphics® VSTAR™ implements the required Ethernet functionality in AUTOSAR 4.2.1. By using the Ethernet protocol, automotive OEMs and their tier 1 suppliers gain access to wide range of bandwidth and data rates, bringing a more robust networking capability to the modern automobile.

These new and innovative types of networking applications continue to expand and grow in complexity. From in-vehicle safety systems, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), and infotainment – to a variety of connectivity options. The Ethernet protocol – ideal for meeting the growing bandwidth and communications requirements of the modern automobile The automotive industry has seen unprecedented growth in vehicle electronics in recent years.
