Wireshark V1.6 adds support for OPC UA

The industry standard for secure communication in automation - OPC Unified Architecture – is now supported by network analyzer Wireshark

Schwabach, August 2011. Wireshark comes in version 1.6.0 by default with a Plug-in for decoding the OPC UA binary protocol. The OPC UA dissector was donated by ascolab GmbH.

The widely known open-source network analyzer tool traces the telegram exchange between network nodes and stores it in a so calles capture file. Using the OPC UA Dissectors these OPC UA messages can be filtered, decoded and their content can be displayed.


The TCP/IP based OPC UA binary proticol can, if used un-encrypted, be analyzed down to the call level of single service request/response telegrams, hence analyzing the logic sequence or the timing behavior of communication between OPC UA Client and server application is easily possible.


„This is a very helpful tool for all developers and system integrators of OPC UA products.“ says Juergen Boxberger, CEO of Unified Automation. „We are very happy for providing such a powerfull analyzing tool. In addition to the compliance test tool (UA-CTT) of the OPC Foundation, Wireshark allowes diagnostic directly on the cable.“


The development was done by the software service partner - the company ascolab GmbH - which also developed the official OPC UA ANSI C communication-stack of the OPC Foundation.


A HowTo with tips on operation of the Wireshark OPC UA network sniffer can be found in the forum of the webseite www.unifiedautomation.com/forum .
