Description

Hi, I have setup this morning NpCap on one win 2019 64 server which has an IP in the same network as my laptop. I fire wireshark and try to add an interface, I underatnd from a couple of blogs that I should enter the IP of the remote server and port 2002.
Is it the right port 2002 that NpCap uses?
I opened port 2002 on the firewall on the remote server also. when I run DiagReport.bat, it shows all details correctly except the port on which it is listening on. The strange thing is when I run
netstat -an
I don't see the port 2002 in the list
Thanks for your help

Research direction

Start with the reported DiagReport.bat output and the results of netstat -an on the Windows Server 2019 host. Check the Npcap remote-capture entry points and configuration related to port 2002, then establish whether the service should listen there and what evidence confirms the issue is resolved.
