If you ping on 10.0.0.11, you won't get ping replies as there is obviously no remote host, but you will see the corresponding ARP requests in Wireshark. If you ping to this 10.0.0.10 address the ping will get ping replies, but you won't see any of this traffic in Wireshark (much like the 127.0.0.1 problem). Let's suppose you have set the IP address of the loopback adapter to 10.0.0.10 and are capturing on that interface. BTW: You can only add one Loopback Adapter to the system!īeware: Capturing from this Loopback Adapter requires the WinPcap 3.1 release, 3.1 beta versions won't work! This adapter is a virtual network adapter you can add, but it will not work on the 127.0.0.1 IP addresses it will take its own IP address. … and is quite different than the ones available for various UN*X systems.

Microsoft: How To Install Microsoft Loopback Adapter in Windows 2000 Microsoft: How to install the Microsoft Loopback adapter in Windows XP Microsoft: How to install the Microsoft Loopback Adapter in Microsoft Windows Server 2003 This adapter is available from Microsoft: You can add a virtual network card called Microsoft Loopback Adapter, but in most cases that might not give results as expected either. You can, however, use Npcap or a raw socket sniffer like RawCap to capture localhost network traffic in Windows. The following page from "Windows network services internals" explains why: The missing network loopback interface. You can't capture on the local loopback address 127.0.0.1 with WinPcap. Starting from Wireshark 3.0.0, the Windows installer includes and will install a recent version of Npcap. The current latest installer can be found here:, the source code can be found here: Check Device Manager ( devmgmt.msc) to ensure the adapter itself has been uninstalled. If it is present in a more recent installation, it can be removed by running (as Administrator) NPFInstall.exe -ul from the Npcap installation directory (usually C:\\Program Files\\Npcap). This is no longer necessary, and can disrupt network operations in some cases.

The data link type for this adapter is DLT_NULL.Įarlier releases of Npcap (before 0.9983) installed a software network adapter called "Npcap Loopback Adapter" for this purpose. In the list of capture interfaces, select "Adapter for loopback traffic capture" and begin capturing as usual. Npcap adds several new features to those existing in WinPcap, including loopback traffic capture.

Npcap is an update of WinPcap using NDIS 6 Light-Weight Filter (LWF), done by Yang Luo for Nmap project during Google Summer of Code 20. Summary: you can capture on the loopback interface on Linux, on various BSDs including macOS, and on Digital/Tru64 UNIX, and you might be able to do it on Irix and AIX, but you definitely cannot do so on Solaris, HP-UX, or Windows without Npcap. See CaptureSetup/NetworkMedia for Wireshark capturing support on various platforms. You will only see it if you capture on the "loopback interface", if there is such an interface and it is possible to capture on it see the next section for information on the platforms on which you can capture on the "loopback interface". This means that you will not see it if you are trying to capture on, for example, the interface device for the adapter to which the destination address is assigned. If you are trying to capture traffic from a machine to itself, that traffic will not be sent over a real network interface, even if it's being sent to an address on one of the machine's network adapters. The following table depicts the pin assignments for most loopback plugs and cables that may be used when testing a system.The following will explain capturing on loopback interfaces a bit. Miswired, poorly soldered, or missing loopback connectors can cause erroneous diagnostic error messages.

Note - Loopback connectors must be wired properly and connected firmly for the Serial Port tests to work correctly. The connectors take the form of either a single plug or a port-to-port cable with some communication connections shorted (looped-back). Loopback connectors aid in testing communication ports.
