Traffic scheduling
Time-aware gates give every mixed-criticality stream its bandwidth and latency.
AutoTSN computes these schedules for you.AutoTSNNew: AutoTSN Studio in your browser
Real-time networks that keep their timing.
We design, build and configure Time-Sensitive Networks, so you can develop time- and safety-critical distributed applications faster, from requirements analysis to a fully computed gate control list.

IEEE 802.1 Time-Sensitive Networking
The four building blocks of TSN
TSN makes standard Ethernet real-time capable and reduces network heterogeneity for Industry 4.0 and IoT. Four IEEE standards form the foundation:
Time synchronization
Every device in a real-time application needs a common time reference.

Seamless redundancy
Frames are replicated and duplicates eliminated, so applications keep running through failures.

Configuration
A working, verified configuration of all network components is the prerequisite for commissioning.
From concept to prototype
Services
We build you a tailor-made TSN prototype, so you can test before investing in large quantities. A typical project runs in four steps:
- 1
Requirements analysis
We analyse the functional and non-functional requirements of your application and select the relevant TSN features.
- 2
Network design and traffic planning
With AutoTSN we model topology, data streams and real-time requirements graphically and compute a valid schedule.
- 3
Implementation and configuration
We build the network with the necessary hardware, configure switches and end stations, and integrate your applications.
- 4
Learning by doing
Hands-on training with our education kits gets your team familiar with TSN.
AutoTSN Studio
AutoTSN: from first sketch to a fully configured network
AutoTSN is our tool for network design and traffic planning. Draw the topology, describe your streams and get a collision-free IEEE 802.1Qbv schedule with exportable gate control lists. Right in the browser, nothing to install.
realtime-it.de/studio
Drag switches, ECUs, cameras and computers onto the grid and connect their ports. Every port takes exactly one cable; line rates from 100 Mbit/s to 10 Gbit/s.
- Drag-and-drop topology with port and load checks
- Every route between talker and listener, shortest first
- Exact SMT solver on our server, or a local engine in the browser
- Export as Linux taprio, NETCONF/YANG or JSON
