A control unit for a vehicle, having an interface for the exchange of data with a sensor, an actuator, and/or a processing unit, including a data memory, in which a first list with multiple first reference numbers (port) is stored. At least one datum of a sensor or an actuator is allocated to a first reference number, and a second list with second reference numbers is stored in the data memory. At least one parameter of a data transmission is stored for each second reference number, a first reference number being allocated via a modifiable allocation to a second reference number, and the control unit being developed to receive and/or transmit the data of a first reference number in accordance with the parameter of the data transmission of the second reference number.
