 Hello,



   Is it possible to start a capture on the loopback interface on Windows
7? I have a client and server both running on the same machine which I’ve
Installed Wireshark on. However, it appears that I cannot capture that
‘local’ traffic – only packets sent and received by the physical Ethernet
device on my computer?
