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.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a controller configured to communicate over a network in a process plant, wherein the network comprises one or more native TSN devices. The controller comprises one or more process applications for controlling one or more processes in the process plant, wherein the one or more process applications includes plurality of tags corresponding to one or more process variables of the one or more processes in the process plant, a software TSN agent for receiving and transmitting packets associated with the one or more process applications on the controller, wherein the software TSN agent is configured to segregate packets associated with the one or more process applications for processing the packets in at least one of a TSN communication mode and a non-TSN communication mode; and a first network interface dedicated for TSN communication and a second network interface dedicated for non-TSN communication.
