Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatuses for orchestrating the re-configuration of a Time-Triggered Ethernet (TTE) network for a plurality of configuration definitions (CDs) within a network configuration superset (NCS) by a Network Scheduling Tool (NST), including coupling a plurality of FSs to at least one common control FS (CCFS) to enable control by the NST of each FS by a runtime procedure wherein each FS of the plurality of FSs is composed of Virtual Links (VLs); scheduling the plurality of features sets (FSs) based on a target configuration of a specified FSs coupled to the CCFS within the TTE network; collecting, in a first scheduling pass by the NST, multiple FSs related to a plurality of phase configurations wherein the FSs are used to derive a specified target FS configuration; and forming a common FS by using an application to determine features associated with each FS of the plurality of FSs.
