Issues with configuring TSN on the web interface for ls1028a

[LedHx]

I am planning to use the LS1028A to develop a TSN endpoint device. However, I found in the document REALTIMEEDGEUG.pdf that to configure TSN via the web interface, a PC needs to be connected to the eno0 interface of eneth. The problem is that I also need to use this interface as the endpoint interface to connect to an external switch. I would like to know if I can use the eno1 interface of eneth instead for the web-based configuration, or if I can connect a PC to one of the switch ports (swp0–4) to perform TSN configuration.

After discussing with the internal team, we recommend using eno0 as the management interface for TSN configuration.

The eno1 port is not routed to an external connector on the LS1028ARDB and therefore cannot be used.

Although the switch ports (swp0–swp4) can be accessed if configured, using them as the management port may restrict some TSN features on that same port.

Thanks.

Will you use the LS1028ARDB evaluation board, or will you design a custom board for your application?

Thank you.

Will you use NETCONF/YANG to setup the TSN? Thanks

Yes, I intend to use NETCONF/YANG to configure the TSN features on Ethernet. However, the manual mentions that web-based configuration requires the eno0 interface, which I plan to use for connecting to an external switch. Since the development board is still in procurement, I currently don’t have access to the necessary hardware.
