System and Method for Interoperability Between Multiple Networks

Systems and methods for interoperating between a time-sensitive (TS) network and a non-time-sensitive (NTS) network. The system may include a TS network switch and a TS network interface controller (NIC). Each may have a functional unit. A first port of the TS switch may be coupled to an NTS node of...

Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods for interoperating between a time-sensitive (TS) network and a non-time-sensitive (NTS) network. The system may include a TS network switch and a TS network interface controller (NIC). Each may have a functional unit. A first port of the TS switch may be coupled to an NTS node of the NTS network and its functional unit may be configured to manage insertion and removal of tags associating packets received from the NTS network with the NTS network. The tagged packets may be forwarded on to the TS NIC via a second port. The functional unit of the TS NIC may be configured to queue tagged packets received from the TS network switch and queue and tag packets destined for the NTS network via the TS network switch.
