TCP/IP and Security Basics & Basic Charging and ISO 15118: Introduction to High-Level Communication

Next Dates: March 07 / March 09 / March 28 / March 30, 2023
Time: 08:00 am to 11:00 am CET / 04:00 pm to 07:00 pm CET

In collaboration with Vector

Remote

You are invited to participate in the remote Trainings "Communication for Charging Systems" hosted in collaboration with Vector.


General information about the Trainings

Book the training session that perfectly suits you and expand your knowledge out of 4 parts. Get fundamental knowledge about communication principles and protocols in Session 1 "TCP/IP Basics". Using the example of Transport Layer Security Protocol will explain the importance of security in Session 2 "Security Basics".

The Topic "Basic Charging" in Session 3 gives an overview of charging in general based on IEC 61851 and explains the fundamental tasks. Session 4 is all about "ISO 15118: Introduction to High-Level Communication" and gives you an insight of the ISO 15118 specific protocol stack, it introduces the high-level communication and explains the fundamental tasks of all protocols.

Agenda: Session 1
TCP/IP Basics

Session 1 and 2 of Communication for Charging Systems can be booked seperately or together. Please choose your ticket accordingly.

Date: Tuesday, March 07, 2023

Time: 04:00 pm to 07:00 pm CET


Goal

The training module will help the participants to understand the fundamental communication principles in the following Charging Communication Trainings.

The content explains the communication via the TCP/IP stack (OSI Layers 1-4) and introduces shortly some application protocols. High-Level Communication protocols will be based on these lower layer features.

  • OSI Layers and basic communication
  • Ethernet Physical Layer Overview
  • Ethernet MAC
  • Internet Protocol (IPv4/IPv6)
  • Auxiliary Protocols (DHCP, SLAAC, ICMP, IGMP, ARP, NDP,…)
  • User Datagram Protocol (UDP)
  • Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)
  • Application Protocols (DoIP, HTTP, DNS)

Work status - subject to change without notice. Time Zone: CET.

Agenda: Session 2
Security Basics

Session 1 and 2 of Communication for Charging Systems can be booked seperately or together. Please choose your ticket accordingly.

Date: Thursday, March 09, 2023

Time: 08:00 am to 11:00 am CET


Goal

Charging Communication has a high demand for security.

The content explains security in general. The general goals of security are achieved with help of fundamental algorithms and processes.

The Transport Layer Security Protocol, will be taken as an example and is discussed in more detail.

  • Introduction
  • Basics of Security
    • Symmetric Cryptography
    • Asymmetric Cryptography
    • Hash Algorithm
    • Message Authentication Code
    • Digital Signature
    • Certificates
    • Key Exchange Algorithms
  • Transport Layer Security (TLS)

Work status - subject to change without notice. Time Zone: CET.

Agenda: Session 3
Basic Charging

Session 3 and 4 of Communication for Charging Systems can only be booked together. 

Date: Tuesday, March 28, 2023

Time: 04:00 pm to 07:00 pm CET


Goal

The training module gives a good overview of charging in general. The content is based on IEC 61851 and explains the fundamental tasks. Furthermore, the main roles and processes during charging and safety related functions will be covered.

  • Introduction and Motivation
  • Overview Charging Systems, Standards and Actors
  • Charge Authorization and Safety
  • Charging Modes
  • Low-Level Communication

Work status - subject to change without notice. Time Zone: CET.

Agenda: Session 4
ISO 15118: Introduction to High-Level Communication

Session 3 and 4 of Communication for Charging Systems can only be booked together. 

Date: Thursday, March 30, 2023

Time: 04:00 pm to 07:00 pm CET


Goal

This part of the training gives an insight of the ISO 15118 specific protocol stack, starting with the physical layer. Standard OSI Layer 2-4 processing is described in the Ethernet Basics module.

It introduces the high-level communication and explains the fundamental tasks of all protocols with their complex relationships.

The key to understanding is knowing why are things done as specified.

  • OSI Layers and ISO 15118 Protocol Stack
  • HomePlug Green PHY
  • Vehicle-to-Grid Transfer Protocol
  • SECC Discovery Protocol(SDP), TCP and TLS Connection Set Up
  • Efficient XML Interchange (EXI)
  • Vehicle-to-Grid Messages
