摘要

The device has an identification unit (41) to identify user data from a message including communication protocol specific information, where the message is received over a communication medium. The unit converts the user data into generic information including unique information key. The key is generated from the protocol specific information. A transformation unit (42) includes a gateway-processor to transform and route the user data. Independent claims are also included for the following: (A) a utilization of a control device in an automobile (B) a communication system including a control device for an automobile (C) a method for operating a control device with gateway-functionalities in a communication system.
