Abstract

In the method, at least one timing message is generated by a first arrangement at predefinable time intervals and is transmitted to at least a second arrangement. The timing message contains a synchronization method, as a function of which time intervals which are provided for the transmission of data packets (DP) each having a predefinable priority class are determined. After reception of the timing message, the received timing message is evaluated, a synchronization time being determined, as a function of which the time intervals which are provided for the transmission of data packets each having a predefinable priority class are determined.
