When using  dumpcap.exe. –D  I get:

I think if Wireshark could provide the  NetConnectionID   like when using wmic that would be good.

 

See what I get when using wmic command  (3^rd column is what I need):

 

wmic:root\cli>nic get index,name,NetConnectionID

Index  Name                                                                                        NetConnectionID

Hello,

 

I’m used to give more precise description of my connection in Wireshark interface Properties in the comment field

So it’ easy to select the interface facing the switch I want to capture.

 

The problem I have is on one my HP  machine I have 8 interfaces and it’s hard to tell which is which from inside Wireshark

because  the identification  like “\Device\NPF_{C4F…………}  is not shown in windows interface list  and the description field is

all the same:

 

HP NC364T PCIe Quad Port Gigabit Server Adapter

HP NC364T PCIe Quad Port Gigabit Server Adapter

…

 

As opposed as windows who list them as for example:

 

HP NC364T PCIe Quad Port Gigabit Server Adapter #3

HP NC364T PCIe Quad Port Gigabit Server Adapter #4  

…

 

Any idea of what I can do to easily do a match ?    ( Now I put all the connection in “shutdown” state in Cisco switches and re-enable them

one at a time to see them reappear in Wireshark but it’s a bit cumbersome…)

Which text output (following the value that appears in the registry) is dumpcap.exe -D providing you with?

 

regards.

 

Andre Noel
