AUTOSAR Ethernet — Fundamentals to Integration

Practical course that connects Ethernet fundamentals (OSI L1/L2, PHY↔MAC boundary) with Automotive Ethernet and the AUTOSAR communication stack. From VLANs and IPv4/IPv6 to SOME/IP/SD and DoIP, then time sync (TSN/AVB) and hands-on configuration principles with SoAd/PduR/Com.

Curriculum

Foundations and motivation

Why Ethernet in vehicles; differences vs. CAN/LIN
High-level architecture view; typical topologies and ECUs

Ethernet from zero to advanced

OSI layers overview; what app teams need from each layer
Layer 1 (Physical): MDI/MII, PHY types (100BASE-T1/1000BASE-T1), autonegotiation/link training; MAC–PHY interfaces (MII/RMII/RGMII/SGMII)
Layer 2 (MAC/LLC): addressing, frame format, CRC; switching operation and CAM tables; VLAN 802.1Q and priority 802.1p best practices
Layer 3: IPv4/IPv6 addressing modes, ARP/NDP, ICMP; routing basics for automotive projects
Layer 4: TCP & UDP essentials; DHCP vs static IP; redundancy design and fast switchover

AUTOSAR Ethernet stack

AUTOSAR layered view; where Ethernet fits
Sockets vs. PDU/iPDU signal-based communication — mapping trade-offs
SoAd + PduR + Com: roles and configuration touchpoints

Service-oriented communication (SOME/IP & SD)

Flow: Service Discovery (SD) control vs. SOME/IP data flow
Configuration principles in SoAd, Sd and LdCom
Network management over UDP (UdpNm)

XCP over Ethernet

Integration via SoAd; key configuration items
Throughput/latency considerations and lab hints

TSN/AVB and time synchronization

TSN and Audio Video Bridging — when and why in automotive
Time Synchronization Cluster in AUTOSAR: TSYN, STBM
Time stamping and time bases over CAN, FlexRay and Ethernet; message sequence examples

Diagnostics over IP (DoIP)

AUTOSAR software architecture with DoIP
Protocol overview; DoIP Node vs. DoIP Gateway
Configuration principles and common pitfalls

Optional modules

Optional — security & tooling

Security touches (SecOC mapping, brief MACsec context)
Wireshark workflows; trace-based troubleshooting; basic performance testing (iperf)

Why Edocti?

The trainers: the most obvious reason. We love what we do and share the knowledge we build in day-to-day practice.
Relevant content: customized to the engineering team’s real, day-to-day needs.
Hands-on first: all our courses are practical. We don’t believe in "slide courses". Our programs are roughly 70% hands-on and 30% focused theory. We present concepts while working through real-world examples.
Edocti has been working on Automotive projects since 2016.
Our trainers have 11+ years of Automotive experience across Classic AUTOSAR, Adaptive AUTOSAR, SOME/IP, embedded Linux, QNX, INTEGRITY, ISO 26262, etc., on telematics and AD/ADAS programs.
Autonomous Driving and ADAS projects for Volvo and General Motors (end clients) in collaboration with Tier-1 companies in Romania since 2016.
V2X projects for GM and VW (end clients), in collaboration with Tier-1 companies in Romania.
Strong collaboration with Romanian Tier-1 companies for technical training, consulting, architecture and implementation.
