Capture Local Traffic for WireShark, with RawCap

Capturing local network traffic is a difficult task for many tools, including WireShark. Do not worry, there is a very simple solution to this problem!

Just use RawCap!

RawCap is a tiny (23KB) application that can capture local traffic and then write that to a pcap (packet capture) file, which can be opened by tools like WireShark! Please note that when using this you must specify your target address as 127.0.0.1, not just localhost.

Enjoy,
Tom
