Slate XNS is a planning and configuration tool to design, plan and configure TSN networks. Slate XNS supports any network topology, so the user can model the network, add streams, and deploy configurations for TSN networks. Slate XNS schedules and configures any TSN standard-compliant device. Slate XNS enables the configuration of complex TSN networks without specialist knowledge. Just install it on a computer running Windows or Linux (Ubuntu LTS) and you can: 

  • Design your network topology.
  • Add TSN streams and plan the network
  • Check all related parameters in the different views available.
  • Export the switch configuration or deploy it directly to all the switches in the network via NETCONF.
    • configuration of any TSN switch and switched endpoints as long as they are compliant with standards (YANG models and NETCONF)

 

Slate XNS architecture and operation

Slate XNS plans TSN networks using TTTech's Slate CNS planning engine. The Graphical User Interface (GUI) lets the user model the network, set the stream requirements, and then visualize planning results in a graph or a table view. 

Compliance with IEEE TSN standards ensures interoperability and vendor independence.

TTTECH Slate XNS

Slate XNS does not interface directly with talkers and listeners. The user inputs requirements via the GUI to plan the network schedule. Slate XNS interfaces with TSN switches and switched endpoints via NETCONF to distribute the relevant configuration files throughout the network. 

 

Supported TSN Standards

IEEE 802.1Qcp YANG model for bridging 

 

Enables communication of basic bridging configuration data (FDB, VLAN, TE-MSTI) between bridges in combination with NETCONF

IEEE 802.1Qcw YANG model for Qbv, Qbu, Qci 

 

Extends capabilities of 802.1Qcp to communication of scheduling, preemption and policing configuration data (ST GCL, ST SDU) between bridges in combination with NETCONF
