4.4. The "Capture Interfaces" dialog box

When you select "Interfaces..." from the Capture menu, Wireshark pops up the "Capture Interfaces"

dialog box as shown in Figure 4.1, “The "Capture Interfaces" dialog box on Microsoft Windows” or

Figure 4.2, “The "Capture Interfaces" dialog box on Unix/Linux”.

This dialog consumes lot's of system resources!

As the "Capture Interfaces" dialog is showing live captured data, it is consuming a lot

of system resources. Close this dialog as soon as possible to prevent excessive system

load.

Not all available interfaces may be displayed!

This dialog box will only show the local interfaces Wireshark knows of. It will not

show interfaces marked as hidden in the "Interface Options" preferences dialog. As

Wireshark might not be able to detect all local interfaces, and it cannot detect the re-

mote interfaces available, there could be more capture interfaces available than listed.
