Time Sensitive Networking Protocol Implementation for Linux End Equipment

By bringing industrial-grade robustness and reliability to Ethernet, Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) offers an IEEE standard communication technology that enables interoperability between standard-conformant industrial devices from any vendor. It also eliminates the need for physical separation of critical non-critical networks, which allows a direct exchange data operation centers companies, concept at heart Industrial Internet Things (IIoT). This article describes creating end-to-end TSN network using specialized PCI Express (PCIe) cards two final Linux endpoints. For this purpose, primary standards TSN, 802.1AS (regarding clock synchronization), 802.1Qbv time scheduled traffic) have been implemented in equipment as well configuration monitoring system.
