Netcap.exe: Network Monitor Capture Utility

This command-line tool allows a system administrator to monitor packets on a LAN and write the information to a log file. NetCap uses the Network Monitor Driver to sniff packets on local network segments.

Notes

  • You must run NetCap from the command window.

  • If the Network Monitor Driver is not installed, NetCap installs it the first time the tool is run. To remove the driver, use netcap /remove.

Corresponding UI

This tool provides a command-line interface to some of the capture functionality of Netmon.
