Modbus/TCP is an open automation protocol used in a variety of SCADA, PLC, and industrial IO applications. Modbusfw is a Linux 2.4.x Netfilter Extension that permits filtering decisions (DROP, REJECT, etc.) based on application-layer values, allowing finer-grained access control than is currently possible by simply blocking TCP port 502

You might want to look at implementing some kind of QoS, marking modbus packets on entry to the network and prioritising them as they pass through.

Here's a link to some white papers which should give you some ideas:
