  • Patent number: 8842531
    Abstract: An IP address delivery system includes an IP address delivery apparatus and a path-information granting unit. The IP address delivery apparatus includes: a path-information reading unit configured to read, from an IP address request signal transmitted from a request source of an IP address, path information of the request source; an IP address correspondence table in which a correspondence relation between the path information and the IP address is registered; and an IP-address determining unit configured to determine, based on the path information and the IP address correspondence table, an IP address delivered to the request source. The path-information granting unit is provided on a communication path between the IP address delivery apparatus and the request source and configured to grant the path information to the IP address request signal transmitted from the request source.

  • Patent number: 8705525
    Abstract: When data is transmitted from a first communication terminal to a second communication terminal, a communication relay device converts car identification information of a communication source of communication-source identification information included in a communication packet into a car number of a vehicle, and transmits the data to an inter-vehicle communication path. When data is transmitted from the second communication terminal to the first communication terminal, the communication relay device converts car identification information of a communication destination of communication-destination identification information included in a communication packet into a “0”-th car indicating own car, and transmits the data to an in-vehicle communication path.
