Abstract
Method and network for connecting a first end device to a network. One method includes the following steps: supporting, by a common data link layer, both Ethernet protocol and time sensitive network protocol; utilizing the Ethernet protocol for discovering, by the first end device, at least one other end device that is connected to the network; and utilizing the time sensitive network protocol for sending time sensitive data by the first end device to the at least one other end device over the network.
