1. A central network configurator controlling data traffic scheduling of a time-sensitive network, comprising,
a receiver receiving, from a central user configurator, stream information about a plurality of traffic flows transmitting first data sensitive to time delay in a sub network and second data insensitive to the time delay;
a resource allocator allocating an output port time resource of each switch entity of a plurality of switch entities included in the sub network transferring the first data and the second data using the stream information;
a gate control list generator generating at least one of switch gate control list information for controlling an operation of each switch entity of the plurality of switch entities and transmission entity gate control list information for controlling a data transmission gate of a plurality of transmission entities transmitting the plurality of traffic flows, based on the stream information and the output port time resource; and
a transmitter transmitting the switch gate control list information to each switch entity of the plurality of switch entities and transmitting the transmission entity gate control list information to the central user configurator.
