This paper proposes a dynamic configuration management framework for Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), aiming to address the challenges of flexibility and adaptability in dynamic network environments. A zero-touch configuration model is presented for TSN by incorporating a Delay-Aware Shortest Path Search (DASPS) algorithm to improve scheduling success rates. Simulation results demonstrate the ability of the framework to reconfigure networks within 2.67 milliseconds. The DASPS algorithm achieves a scheduling success rate of 70.22% for 1000 TSN flows, in contrast to only 22.23% achieved by the Shortest Path Search (SPS) algorithm. The proposed model effectively adapts to dynamic network changes, guaranteeing real-time data transmission. To further evaluate system adaptability, path entropy is introduced as a metric to quantitatively assess the balance of scheduling outcomes under topological changes. In the event of link failures, path entropy experiences a sharp decline but rapidly recovers after reconfiguration, demonstrating the system\u2019s strong self-healing capability.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/e27060584","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,30]],"date-time":"2025-05-30T08:07:58Z","timestamp":1748592478000},"page":"584","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["A Zero-Touch Dynamic Configuration Management Framework for Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN)"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"27","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7667-4760","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Junhui","family":"Jiang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Computer Science and Technology, Harbin Engineering University, Harbin 150001, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shanyu","family":"Jin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Computer Science and Technology, Harbin Engineering University, Harbin 150001, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xinghan","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Computer Science and Technology, Harbin Engineering University, Harbin 150001, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kaisong","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Computer Science and Technology, Harbin Engineering University, Harbin 150001, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Baodan","family":"Sun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Computer Science and Technology, Harbin Engineering University, Harbin 150001, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"279","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jmsy.2022.09.017","article-title":"Industry 5.0: Prospect and retrospect","volume":"65","author":"Leng","year":"2022","journal-title":"J.
