Using Dice with Windump

While Dice will read and format files created by a number of sniffer programs, it cannot be used to sniff your network on its own. For that you need a separate sniffer program.

One option is to use Windump. Windump is a port of the widely used Unix program TCPDUMP and can be downloaded from the following location: http://www.winpcap.org/windump You will also need to install WinPcap, a link to which can be found  from at same location.

Once you have Windump installed the following command can be used to create a test file:

    windump -w windump.acp -s 1518

Hit Ctrl-C to stop Windump after a few minutes and then load the output file (windump.acp) into Dice.
