Claim 12:
13. A method implemented by a first network device in a fully distributed model using Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), wherein the method comprises:
receiving, from a second network device of a TSN network, a traffic scheduling message comprising traffic scheduling information, wherein the traffic scheduling information comprises time extension information indicating an extension time of currently effective traffic scheduling information before the traffic scheduling information takes effect, wherein the traffic scheduling information is based on a first talker attribute message and a listener attribute message, wherein the first talker attribute message requests the second network device to deliver the traffic scheduling information of a data stream, wherein the first talker attribute message indicates that a talker device is a transmitting end of the data stream, and wherein the listener attribute message indicates that a listener device is a receiving end of the data stream;
generating a gate control list based on the traffic scheduling information; and
controlling, based on the gate control list, a state of a port for transmitting the data stream.
