In the left column, this dialog allows you to specify a name for the new Switch as well as the number of available Ethernet ports. At the bottom left, parameters part of the switch memory model are available. These allow you to specify the port memory buffer sizes, which will affect the probability of packet drop occurring during contention on a port. The configuration of these parameters are explained in a separate article: Switch memory model configuration
In the right pane, detailed Ethernet port configuration settings are available. Please see a separate article for a detailed explanation of theses settings: https://tcntcn.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/TD/pages/845479937/Ethernet+layer-2+priority+support

A sensor in the application is a device that has the capability to create a Data Flow, stored in a capture file. Thus, the Sensor can be the source of a Data Frame or a Stream.
The sensor can inject packets into a virtual Ethernet network by reading Ethernet frames with high-precision time stamps from a capture file. In the delivery, it is provided such a capture file with a recording of an automotive Ethernet best effort camera. In the same way any device generating Ethernet packets can be recorded (measured) with our other tool (TCN Ethernet StreamAnalyzer) and played back in the TCN Ethernet Simulator. TCN Ethernet StreamAnalyzer is not yet released, so TCN has to do this recording.
To add a Sensor, select the Add Sensor 
tool. In the dialog window, enter the name of the Sensor and select a type and model of the sensor.
