1. A method for determining a sending period of a packet in a deterministic network, comprising:
receiving a first packet;
determining a first period of the first packet, wherein the first period is a sending period of the first packet;
determining timestamp information of the first packet based on the first period, wherein the timestamp information indicates a time difference between a first time and a second time, the first time is a start sending time at which the first packet starts to be sent in the first period, and the second time is a start time of the first period;
encapsulating the timestamp information into the first packet to generate a second packet; and
sending the second packet.
