There is a way.

If the interface's name is XXX (which shows up in one of the registry
keys - "Bind", or "Bindings", or something such as that - for the
packet-capture-driver service, albeit with "\Device\" in front of it),
then

	\HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\XXX\Parameters\TcpIp

has in it "IPAddress" and "SubnetMask", both of which are REG_MULTI_SZ
strings containing, I presume, lists of IP addresses and corresponding
subnet masks for the interface, in dotted-quad string format.

I may look at making the Politecnico "pcap_lookupnet()" use that at some
point.
