3 Claims

1. A Roadside Unit (RSU) configured with an extended IPv6 Management Information Base (MIB) operable to determine packet and byte count statistics for Wireless Access Vehicular Vehicle (WAVE) bandwidth usage per client device, said client device being either an On-board Unit (OBU), a non-Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DSRC) mobile device that is IPv6-reachable through an OBU, or a DSRC-enabled user device; said IPv6 MIB being also operable to retrieve, for each datagram received from an IPv6 node operating in a route optimization mode of Mobile IPv6, a fixed “home address” of the mobile node carried in the Mobile IPv6 routing header of said datagram; said RSU being operable to accumulate, in Non-volatile Random Access Memory (NOVRAM), said packet and byte count statistics for WAVE bandwidth usage per client device and periodically to send said statistics to an Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) server, encapsulated in a UDP/IP message, only refreshing said NOVRAM table when the AAA server has acknowledged reception of said UDP/IP message.
