[Winpcap-users] PPP/Dialup capture support in Windows 7: Whateffort needs to be done to make it work?

[Gianluca Varenni]

If you just need to capture on your own machine and later analyze the traffic with, let's say, Wireshark, I would probably use Microsoft Netmon and then open the capture with Wireshark.

If you are looking for a more programmatic way, then there a couples of choices
- write a wrapper on top of the NetMon 3.x APIs and integrate them into WinPcap. Please remember that Netmon does not come by default on Windows Vista/7, so the user would need to install it manually (you cannot redistribute the Microsoft Netmon installer)
- create an NDIS filter driver to capture such traffic and integrate it into WinPcap. 

Have a nice day

Dear WinPcap Users



I read the FAQ regarding PPP support within Windows 7. The current answer is: Not supported! Unfortunate there is no more info on that issue.



As I desperately want to capture PPP (aka Dialup / DUN) connections under Windows 7 I would like to know what effort needs to be done in order to make it work.



Thank you

John
