Data Delivery
Data delivered over White Rabbit network is divided into:
- Best Effort data - as in any standard Ethernet network,
- Critical data - unlike in a standard Ethernet network, White Rabbit Network provides deterministic and reliable method of data delivery
White Rabbit provides delivery of critical data
- with guaranteed upper bound latency
- in a deterministic way
- reliably
- transparently to "standard" (best effort) data delivery
White Rabbit critical data delivery is a combination of
- standard solutions (802.1Q priorities, VLANs, Quality of Service)
- hardware support to standard solutions
- enhancements to existing protocols
