Abstract
An apparatus for processing data units, e.g., protocol data units. The apparatus includes a first number of input interfaces for receiving protocol data units and, optionally, a second number of output interfaces for outputting protocol data units, and a checking device, e.g., a firewall device, which is designed to check at least one received protocol data unit, e.g., to subject it to a security check.

1-31. (canceled)
An apparatus for processing data units, comprising:
- a first number of input interfaces configured to receive protocol data units;
- and
- a checking device configured to check at least one received protocol data unit.
A computer-implemented method for processing data units, for an apparatus including a first number of input interfaces configured to receive protocol data units, and a checking device configured to check at least one received protocol data unit, the method comprising:
- receiving at least one protocol data unit;
- and
- checking the received at least one protocol data unit using the checking device.
An apparatus for processing data units, for an apparatus including a first number of input interfaces configured to receive protocol data units, and a checking device configured to check at least one received protocol data unit, the apparatus for processing data units configured to:
- receive at least one protocol data unit;
- and
- check the received at least one protocol data unit using the checking device.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium on which are stored instructions for processing data units, for an apparatus including a first number of input interfaces configured to receive protocol data units, and a checking device configured to check at least one received protocol data unit, the instructions, when executed by a computer, causing the computer to perform the following steps:
- receiving at least one protocol data unit;
- and
- checking the received at least one protocol data unit using the checking device.
An automotive gateway, comprising:
- at least one apparatus for processing data units, including:
- a first number of input interfaces configured to receive protocol data units, and
- a checking device configured to check at least one received protocol data unit.
