Abstract

A method for data transfer in a multiple-standard network, wherein the network includes a physical gateway, a sophisticated gateway, and a device. The device and the physical gateway are connected via a first connection of a first non-IP physical data transfer standard. The physical gateway and the sophisticated gateway are connected via a second connection of a second non-IP physical data transfer standard. Transmission data that is received at the physical gateway from the device is transmitted to the sophisticated gateway. Thereby, the second connection is a tunnel connection and no bus service is running on the physical gateway. The bus service of the first non-IP physical data transfer standard is running on the sophisticated gateway, thus providing the access of the device to a communication layer.
