Zusammenfassung:This paper describes a novel method for layer-2 auto-configuration of realtime Ethernet networks. Our approach is able to roll out local MAC addresses to the involved devices as well as to discover the topology automatically on top of LLDP. The description of the complete network topology is realized with a minimum amount of data and includes a systematically propagation towards the topology manager. A model-driven development approach has been adopted to verify the concept by using simulation technique.
