NETWORK CONFIGURATION ESTIMATION APPARATUS, NETWORK CONFIGURATION ESTIMATION METHOD AND PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18042401 Titled 'NETWORK CONFIGURATION ESTIMATION APPARATUS, NETWORK CONFIGURATION ESTIMATION METHOD AND PROGRAM'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a device that can estimate the configuration information of a network within a target device. This device includes a processor and memory with instructions. The device sends a message to an electronic control unit on the network using a diagnostic communication method supported by the unit. It then receives a response to the message and uses that response to estimate the configuration information of the network.
Original Abstract Submitted
Provided is a network configuration estimation device for estimating configuration information of an internal network in a target device. The network configuration estimation device includes a processor; and a memory that includes instructions, which when executed, cause the processor to execute the following steps: transmitting a message to an electronic control unit on the internal network by using a diagnostic communication method supported in a standard manner in the electronic control unit on the internal network and receiving a response to the message; and estimating the configuration information of the internal network based on the obtained response.
