Abstract

A method for setting an IP (Internet Protocol) address for accessing a specified network is disclosed. The method includes detecting values that indicate inherent information of a vehicle from a vehicle identification number that includes specified vehicle information, setting a specified bit value for reporting that the IP address is a unique address, and creating the IP address by combining the specified bit value with the values that indicate the inherent information of the vehicle. According to the present method, the inherent IP address can be set for each vehicle by setting an interface identifier (ID) of the IP address using the vehicle identification number. Also, diverse vehicle information can be obtained through the interface ID of the IP address set using the vehicle identification number. Because, the IP address is set by the invention composed of the interface ID of 64 bits, it is compatible with the existing Extended Unique Identifier EUI-64 format.
