Time-sensitive network configuration management system and method

Abstract

The invention relates to a time-sensitive network configuration management system, which belongs to the field of time-sensitive networks, and comprises a network management client and a plurality of network management servers, and the network management servers are arranged in a TSN switch; the network management client comprises a user configuration interface, a remote procedure call (RPC) message processor, a session communication layer composition and a multicast domain name system mDNS module; the network management server comprises a session communication layer, an RPC message processor, an operation manager, a managed object module and an mDNS module. The invention also provides a time-sensitive network configuration management method. According to the invention, automation of network equipment configuration is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of time-sensitive networks, and relates to a time-sensitive network configuration management system and method. Background technique [0002] The configuration process of the real-time network is expensive in terms of time and engineering, and there are many sudden heterogeneous networks in the current factory environment, such as PROFINET, MODBUS, and EPA, etc. When configuring these heterogeneous networks, we need to disconnect the network chain road, and required the system to be shut down during the reconfiguration phase, resulting in significant downtime. [0003] The current configuration management for time-sensitive network devices is mainly that network administrators need to go to the industrial site to configure time-sensitive network devices in the form of command lines at the device terminals, which is relatively inefficient and the configuration commands are relatively complicated. [0004] Currently, t...
