Vanishing interface

Currently I am using this low-end machine (Windows 2000 OEM, dial up) for passive monitoring to debug application, firewall, security and LAN issues via the generic adaptor & the WAN (PPP/SLIP) interfaces working in tandem. This has worked very well. Or, at least, until yesterday. Yesterday, somehow I lost the WAN (PPP/SLIP) interface. Without that interface, there was no capturing - unless one performs the installation of the virtual loopback adapter. Here is what I did. When the WAN interface vanished yesterday, I attempted to restart the box and then log on with WS. No Wan interface. Today I booted up and again started up WS. Today both interfaces were back. Here's my question: Why did I loose the interface in the first place? Since this interface originates from the WAN (for which I have no visibility) could this be a DCHP lease issue or an ACL issue or ? Many thanks. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-users mailing list <wireshark-users () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-users Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-users mailto:wireshark-users-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
