If you're using X-plugins to monitor a Windows host, identifying the NIC device name required by the sampler is tricky, as it is not documented. To get the Windows NIC device name of a Windows host, go to the Netprobe binary directory, there you will find the executable Netprobe file, commonly NetprobeNT. Run the "NetprobeNT.exe -if " via the command prompt and it should list the host's NIC devices. |

Here's an example detailing the steps to get the NIC device name; Go to the Netprobe binary directory;
Open the command prompt from the NetprobeNT folder, Shift+right-click; Open command window here;
Run the command "NetprobeNT -if" or "NetprobeNT -ifconfig" and it will show you a list of NIC device names. The NIC device names are the lines that starts with \Device..
NOTE: If it happens that no data NIC device names are listed, upgrade your Winpcap version and then restart your system, re-run the steps and it should give you the information. |
