Hi I am working on Windows and need to capture packets from a test app, using Wireshark, via a loopback device. I understand that the recommendation is to use the "Adapter for loopback capture" device (\Device\NPF_Loopback). I am doing this and it works fine. I now need to test very large packets and to see how my dissector handles fragmentation. How can I set the MTU of the "Adapter for loopback capture" device?
I would think that's a question for the npcap folks. Maybe not even possible as IIUC it's a pseudo-NIC created by npcap.
Best regards David
