I know nothing about the BACnet protocol. :)

However, I think if you use Wireshark to open a file containing BACnet frames and look at the dissection of the BACnet frames you should see what you seek. ;)

(Use bacnet as a filter to find the BACnet frames in a capture_).

Thanks for the info.

I have did it. But the finding priority level is very difficult. If we know the exact filter and how I can identify and where I can identify, that will help me alot

As I said, I know nothing about the protocol.

However, I do note that there are some bits in the Control byte of the NPDU level of the BACnet frame that might be what you want.

So: I suggest you look again at a BACnet dissection. :)

If that's not what you want, then I'll not be able to help.

P.S.:

If you click on any particular field (line) in the details (middle) pane of the Wireshark diosplay, you will see the filter (if any) for that field in the bottom status display line in the window in the form bacnet.xxxx.
