Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed herein that enable Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) network or Deterministic Networking (DetNet) network replication function fallback. In some embodiments, a method comprises, at a primary replication function, obtaining a packet in a particular stream, obtaining a sequence number for the packet, generating M copies of the packet each comprising the sequence number, transmitting the M copies, and providing, to a redundancy controller, the sequence number or a next sequence number of a next packet to be transmitted for the particular stream. The method further comprises, at the redundancy controller, receiving the sequence number or the next sequence number and providing the sequence number or the next sequence number to a secondary replication function. The method further comprises, at the secondary replication function, receiving the sequence number or the next sequence number and configuring a sequence generation function with the next sequence number.
