RELY-TSN-Configuator

TSN Time Sensitive Network Configuration Tool

The RELY-TSN-Configuator configuration tool allows the configuration of TSN devices when determining the network topology and communication requirements, and ensures that constraints are met.

The configuration of TSN networks is one of the most active topics in the standardization (IEEE) and industry (IIC TSN Testbed Working Group) groups.

TSN communication is based on data streams set up between a Talker and one or more Listener(s). Based on the agreed parameters of each stream, it is necessary to configure all elements of the TSN network to switch frames according to the selected parameters. This operation is performed by the Centralized Network Configuration (CNC) node.

TSN Network Modeling

  • Allows traffic characterization, TSN device characterization, and network and network device modeling:
    By modeling traffic requirements, network devices and topology from a GUI.
    or by importing existing descriptions (YANG, CSV)

Selecting the TSN mechanism

The GUI allows selecting the TSN mechanisms supported by the hardware. The TSN mechanisms available in the tool are:

  • Time synchronization: Timing and synchronization (IEEE Std 802.1AS-2020)
  • QoS: Traffic Classification (IEEE Std 802.1p)
  • Credit-based shaper (IEEE Std 802.1Qav)
  • Predefined Traffic (IEEE Std 802.1Qbv)
  • Frame grabbing (IEEE Std 802.1Qbu)
  • Reliability: Per-stream filtering and monitoring (IEEE Std 802.1Qci)
  • Frame Overlay and Elimination Reliability (IEEE Std 802.1CB)
  • Configuration: YANG Data Model (IEEE Std 802.1Qcp, P802.1Qcw, P802.1CBcv)

Export TSN Configuration

Allows generation of the correct configuration and:

  • Exported in XML-YANG format
  • or exported in Excel, CSV format.
  • Importing from other HONGKE RELY devices

Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) is a new generation of network technology based on the evolution of the standard Ethernet architecture. It takes traditional Ethernet as the network foundation and provides a data link layer protocol specification for deterministic data transmission capability through mechanisms such as clock synchronization, data scheduling, and network configuration. Compared with traditional Ethernet, TSN can provide microsecond-level deterministic services, reduce the complexity of the entire communication network, and realize the convergence of information technology (IT) and operation technology (OT). With its precise clock synchronization, deterministic traffic scheduling, and intelligent and open operation and maintenance management framework, TSN can ensure the high-quality transmission of multiple business traffic in a common network, and it has both performance and cost advantages, and it is the development trend of the future network. This is the future trend of network development.

Currently, TSN technology has a high level of discussion in the automotive, industrial, rail transportation, and aerospace fields. As a non-vendor-bound real-time communication protocol, we believe that TSN technology has a good application prospect.

Welcome to contact us to explore and learn the integration of TSN technology with various industries, and actively promote more applications on the ground to jointly build a new world of intelligent interconnection.
