This thesis work exhibits the survival of IPv4 addressing architecture and also about the distribution and allocation of IPv4 addresses. The fast growth of the Internet demands huge address space and it is the prominent cause for IPv4 exhaustion. The information regarding the existence of IPv4 addressing architecture in spite of its huge demand for the address space is also discussed. The temporary solutions like private IP addresses, CIDR, NAT makes the life of V4 still alive. But the permanent solution is to shift towards the new addressing scheme, IPv6. The merits and demerits of using both the addressing scheme are also discussed. Deploying IPv6 leads to the co-existence of V4 and V6 during the transition phase. Hence appropriate tunneling and transition techniques have to be deployed to make communication possible across both the addressing scheme. After the transition period the whole internet will be operating with V6 address. During that phase packet travelling across LAN will be carrying huge header to payload ratio. Hence finally this paper also brings out a suggestion on reducing this ratio across the local traffic in the V6 environment.

Automotive manufacturers face interesting challenges as electronic devices are becoming essential in modern vehicles. Therefore new approaches and strategies are to be adopted in order to tackle the coming challenges. One of the most rapidly growing domains is infotainment and telematics, where applications require a large amount of data to be transmitted on-board and also exchanged with the external world. The in-vehicle communication networks for infotainment systems must consequently be devised considering the need for transporting the considerable amount of data of multimedia applications as well as features particular to this area. This thesis is intended to analyze possible implementations of multimedia networks for heavy transport vehicles, in relation to various aspects and features in this area. The thesis presents an analysis of different protocols and technologies used in automotive multimedia networks. Furthermore, characteristic requirements for automotive electronics systems and especially for automotive multimedia networks are investigated in detail. Based on these requirements different multimedia networks are proposed and studied, making a comparison between them with regard to a number of criteria. A broad approach during the investigation of the multimedia protocols is chosen in order to enlarge the area of used technology and to bring new technologies and possibilities for the truck industry. The observations and the experiences from the car industry are used in the truck domain, where the specifics of the truck industry are taken into account. The comparison gives an insight into the particulars of the proposed solutions from several viewpoints so that a suitable multimedia network can be selected based on different criteria.
