Is BAC0 python library compatible with bacnet-stack?

[snehabati]

Use Case: I have a BACnet service created using the bacnet-stack code which acts as a server and I as a client using BAC0 python library to read/write the object properties. Read requests are getting APDU timeout and who is request is not able to discover my BACnet service which is running. Below is my code, please let me know if there is any solution.

Code Snippet:

import BAC0
client_ip="10.16.91.65"
server_ip="10.16.91.69"
obj_name="device"
prop_name="objectName"
client_conn=BAC0.connect(ip=client_ip,port="47808")
print(client_conn)
who_is=client_conn.whois()
print("Who is =",who_is)

Console Output:

I use BAC0 for testing with bacnet stack, so yes, fundamentally there shouldn't be any problem. Keep in mind it must run on a different machine (or maybe at least different port) so bacnet stack can bind to the 47808 port

Great to know it works, thanks. I tried to run the client with 47809 port but still see same issue. I am running bacnet-stack code on linux Ubuntu VM and client(BAC0 code) from Windows 11 laptop.
