If you want an authoritative answer, you should post it as an issue on the Npcap issues list, so that Daniel Miller, the Npcap developer, can answer in more detail. Windows support loopback traffic to 127.0.0.1 even if you don't have Npcap installed the looping back doesn't go through a regular NDIS interface, I think it's special-cased in the IPv4 and IPv6 code.Īll Npcap does is provide a special hook to allow that looped-back traffic to be captured the hook looks like a network adapter from the point of view of the libpcap API, so that programs using that API (which is also the Npcap API) to capture traffic can capture on it the same way it can capture on a regular interface, but that doesn't mean it is a regular interface.

You're assuming the loopback adapter is a regular Windows network adapter that can have an IP address assigned to it, and that loopback traffic passes through it.Īs far as I know, that's not the case. Wireshark shows interface 'Adaptor for loopback traffic capture', which I assume is npcap, but that interface does not appear in Control Panel > Network Connections, so I cannot set the IP address.Īm I correct that the npcap interface should appear in Control Panel?

I am running Windand have installed Wireshark 3.4.0 (without npcap) followed by an install of npcap 1.00.
