SOFTWARE UPDATE METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE
First Claim
1. An operation method of a first communication node constituting an Ethernet-based vehicle network of a vehicle, comprising:
- waking up by transitioning from a sleep state to a ready state;
preventing transmission of network requests to other communication nodes connected to the Ethernet-based vehicle network; and
performing update of software.

Abstract
An operation method of a first communication node constituting an Ethernet-based vehicle network of a vehicle may comprise waking up by transitioning from a sleep state to a ready state; preventing transmission of network requests to other communication nodes connected to the Ethernet-based vehicle network; and performing update of software. Thus, only a target end node among a plurality of end nodes connected to the Ethernet-based vehicle network can be woken up for update of software so as to reduce power consumption of the vehicle due to the update of software. Also, abnormal operations due to the update of software can be prevented by allowing the update of software to be performed only while the vehicle is not running.
