  • Local network: connects to the Internet
  • WAN (virtual): Connects to the outside world without using a VPN
  • WSP (virtual): Only connected through the Internet
  • WTF (virtual): Connected through the WAN
  • CCC (virtual): Connected through the WAN
  • TNF (virtual): Not used yet
  • FNF (virtual): Not used yet
  • GTF (virtual): Not used yet
  • HTF (virtual): Not used yet
  • MX (virtual): Not used yet
  • IP (virtual): Not used yet
  • ARP (virtual): Connected through the internet
  • BIND (virtual): Used to resolve addresses
  • SSL (virtual): Used to encrypt traffic
  • DNS (virtual): Used to resolve hostnames
  • TLS (virtual): Used to secure communication
  • FTP (virtual): This routine will connect you to the Internet directly How to use Wireshark with windows 7 One thing to keep in mind when using Wireshark with a virtual network interface (VPN) is that you’ll only be able see traffic that comes from the VPN server. So any traffic going from the internet will remain invisible to the network. You can’t see the traffic that comes from a physical network connection; it’s just not visible to Wireshark.

Set up a virtual server

You’ll need to set up the virtual server in order for Wireshark to be able to see your traffic. This is the most important step and it can be done automatically.

Select ” Windows/GWini ” and click on ” New Object “. The window will look like this:

You can name the window “Wireshark-vpn-mirror” and put it in the same directory as the analysis program. You can put other applications in the same directory as the Wireshark analysis program.

Run Wireshark

Now that you’ve set up a virtual server, you need to run Wireshark on it. To run Wireshark from the virtual server, select Start > All Programs > Windows Network Monitor > Windows Network Monitor.

Create a profile for Wireshark

On the left side of the window will be a drop-down menu that lets you select the ” Wireshark” or “Analyzer” tab. Click on the drop-down and choose ” Wireshark Profile “.
