Yeah. Some things continuously pop up after some time :-) @Wolfgang W.: We had a quite interesting and long discussion about Kurts suggested implementation. Especially on how to deal with address claiming. Currently the AUTOSAR J1939 specifications nearly ignore the AC which provides the possibility of having a simple PDU interface. But if we want to do AC the discussion comes up how much of it we put into the kernel-space and how much we do in user-space (e.g. with an AC daemon). I think Kurt also asked you about your planned setup. Is address claiming also part of it? Regards, Oliver
