Abstract

A method is proposed for operating a network with multiple subscribers in the network. For this purpose, a network having at least one switch (), at least two terminals () and a controller () is provided. According to the invention, one of the subscribers now sends and/or receives data to another subscriber via an application protocol, with the data being sent and/or received as a TSN data stream. In order to integrate non-TSN-capable nodes in the network, it is proposed that the TSN data stream be divided into at least two partial data streams (). Such partial data streams () can be configured across non-TSN-capable subscribers or between such subscribers.
