Abstract
Systems, methods, techniques and apparatuses of industrial automation are disclosed. One exemplary embodiment is an industrial automation system including a primary time-sensitive network (TSN) and a redundant TSN. The system also includes a control system configured to determine a primary data flow, determine a redundant data flow duplicative of the primary data flow, and generate a plurality of sets of configuration information using the primary data flow and the redundant data flow. The primary TSN and the redundant TSN, using the plurality of sets of configuration information, are configured to transmit the primary data flow and the redundant data flow simultaneously.
