PRIVILEGED, DIAGNOSTIC LINK CONNECTOR BASED NETWORK MONITORING CAPABILITIES WITHIN A VEHICLE EMPLOYING A GATEWAY MODULE USED TO ISOLATE AND SECURE VEHICLE NETWORKS
First Claim
1. Method of providing privileged access to an internal vehicle communication network, the method comprising:
- providing a presentation network bus capable of providing listen-only access to a subset of in-vehicle networks;
verifying access credentials in a security system configured to control access to the presentation network bus by using a combination of symmetric and asymmetric cryptographic systems;
receiving a diagnostic service request after the access credentials have been verified to enable the presentation network bus for listen-only access to the subset of in-vehicle networks; and
enabling the presentation network bus for the listen-only access in response to receipt of the diagnostic service request.

Abstract
A system for providing privileged access to an internal vehicle communication network is provided. The system includes a presentation network bus configured to provide listen-only access to a subset of in-vehicle networks, a security system configured to enable access to the presentation network bus by verifying access credentials, and a diagnostic service system configured to control access to the presentation network bus. The diagnostic service system is configured to receive a diagnostic service request after the access credentials have been verified to enable the presentation network busses for listen-only access to the subset of the in-vehicle networks. The presentation network busses may be enabled for the listen-only access after credential verification by the security system and in response to receipt of a diagnostic service request from the diagnostic service system requesting that the presentation network busses be enabled.

10. A system for providing privileged access to an internal vehicle communication network, the system comprising:
-
a presentation network bus configured to provide listen-only access to a subset of in-vehicle networks; a security system configured to enable access to the presentation network bus by verifying access credentials; and a diagnostic service system configured to control access to the presentation network bus, the diagnostic service system configured to receive a diagnostic service request after the access credentials have been verified to enable the presentation network bus for listen-only access to the subset of networks; wherein the presentation network bus may be enabled for the listen-only access after credential verification by the security system and in response to receipt of a diagnostic service request from the diagnostic service system requesting that the presentation network bus be enabled. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A gateway module in a vehicle comprising:
-
presentation circuitry configured to mirror a selected in-vehicle network onto a presentation network bus, the presentation circuitry comprising; selection circuitry configured to selectively output one of a plurality of network receive lines from in-vehicle serial networks to the presentation network bus; and transceiver circuitry that is configured to transmit data onto the presentation network bus from the selected in-vehicle network for listen-only access to the in-vehicle network and prevent data from the presentation network bus from being transmitted onto the selected in-vehicle network; a security interface configured to enable access to the presentation network bus by verifying access credentials using a combination of symmetric and asymmetric cryptographic systems; and a diagnostic service interface configured to control access to the presentation network bus, the diagnostic service interface configured to receive a diagnostic service request after the access credentials have been verified to enable the presentation network bus for listen-only access to the selected in-vehicle network. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
