An apparatus including a storage medium and a controller is provided. The storage medium stores a mapping of stream Identifiers (IDs) to Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) tags. The controller is coupled to the storage medium and configured to route a packet for a Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) network according to the mapping. The routing of the packet includes replacing a VLAN tag in the packet according to the stream ID of the packet and the mapping, so as to maintain the real-time deterministic behavior of delivering data streams in the TSN network.

Apparatuses and methods for routing packets for a time-sensitive networking (TSN) network by virtual local area network (VLAN) tag replacement

An apparatus including a storage medium and a controller is provided. The storage medium stores a first mapping of stream Identifiers (IDs) to VLAN tags, and a second mapping of the stream IDs to VLAN tag indications. The controller is coupled to the storage medium and configured to route a packet between a Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) network and a non-TSN network according to the first and second mappings. The routing of the packet includes inserting or removing a VLAN tag in or from the packet according to the stream ID of the packet and the first and second mappings, so as to enable interoperability between the TSN network and the non-TSN network.
