Ethereal-users: Re: [Ethereal-users] How to sniff packets between two local ports using Ethereal
Note: This archive is from the project's previous web site, ethereal.com. This list is no longer active.
Depending on the OS you are using, the kernel is probably smart enough
to route these packets directly between the two applications without
handing them down to the Ethernet device driver (and out onto the wire).
However, you might trying capturing on the loopback device.

Hello,
I am using Ethereal Packet Analyzer
to capturing packets that are being exchanged between two applications
running on two different ports(say 10000 and 13000) but on the same
machine.
Is there any way to sniff these
packets
using Ethereal. However, we are able to capture packets exchange
between
applications running on two different machines but unable to capture in
the aforesaid scenario.
Please guide us the way to
use/customize
Ethereal for such scenario.
Thanks and regards,
