Notice: If WinPcap is installed on your system, and you want to use the Microsoft Network Monitor Driver method, it’s recommended to run SmartSniff with /NoCapDriver, because the Microsoft Network Monitor Driver may not work properly when WinPcap is loaded too.
System Requirements
Under Windows 2000/XP (or greater), SmartSniff also allows you to capture TCP/IP packets without installing any capture driver, by using ‘Raw Sockets’ method. However, this capture method has some limitations and problems:
- Outgoing UDP and ICMP packets are not captured.
- On Windows XP SP1 outgoing packets are not captured at all — Thanks to Microsoft’s bug that appeared in SP1 update.
This bug was fixed on SP2 update, but under Vista, Microsoft returned back the outgoing packets bug of XP/SP1. - On Windows Vista/7/8: Be aware that Raw Sockets method doesn’t work properly on all systems. It’s not a bug in SmartSniff, but in the API of Windows operating system. If you only see the outgoing traffic, try to turn off Windows firewall, or add smsniff.exe to the allowed programs list of Windows firewall.
How to capture data from other wireless networks
Versions History
- Version 2.29:
- Fixed bug from version 2.28: SmartSniff crashed when selecting loopback interface or other network interfaces without connection information.
- Version 2.28:
- The information of the selected network adapter is now displayed in the window title.
- Version 2.27:
- Fixed the lower pane to switch focus when pressing tab key.
- Version 2.26:
- SmartSniff now automatically loads the new version of WinPCap driver from https://nmap.org/npcap/ if it’s installed on your system.
- SmartSniff now tries to load the dll of Network Monitor Driver 3.x (NmApi.dll) according to the installation path specified in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Netmon3. This change should solve the problem with loading the Network Monitor Driver 3.x on some systems.
- Version 2.25:
- Added 4 columns to the adapters list in the ‘Capture Options’ window: ‘Connection Name’, ‘MAC Address’, ‘Instance ID’, ‘Interface Guid’.
- When using WinPCap driver , SmartSniff now displays more accurate information in the adapters list of the ‘Capture Options’ window.
- Fixed the ‘Retrieve process information while capturing packets’ feature to work on Windows 10/8/7.
- Version 2.20:
- Added option to capture traffic on 127.0.0.1 (Loopback) to ‘Raw Sockets’ capture method (For Windows Vista or later).
- Version 2.17:
- Added ‘Find In Upper Pane’ option.
- Version 2.16:
- Fixed bug: SmartSniff failed to remember the last size/position of the main window if it was not located in the primary monitor.

- Version 2.10:
- SmartSniff now allows you to automatically add it to the allowed programs list of Windows firewall when starting to capture and remove it when you stop capturing. This option is needed when using the ‘Raw Socket’ capture method while Windows firewall is turned on, because if SmartSniff is not added to Windows firewall, the incoming traffic is not captured at all.

Using SmartSniff
If you want the save the captured packets for viewing them later, use «Save Packets Data To File» option from the File menu.
Display Mode
Starting from version 1.35, there is a new mode — ‘URL List’. This mode only display the URL addresses list (http://. ) found in the captured packets.
Exporting the captured data
Displaying characters above ASCII 127
The ‘IP Country’ columns
You can also use the GeoLite City database. Simply download the GeoLite City in Binary / gzip (GeoLiteCity.dat.gz) and put it in the same folder of smsniff.exe
If you want to get faster loading process, extract the GeoLiteCity.dat from the GeoLiteCity.dat.gz and put it in the same folder of smsniff.exeCapture and Display Filters
For both filter types, you can add one or more filter strings (separated by spaces or CRLF) in the following syntax:
[ include | exclude ] : [ local | remote | both ] : [ tcp | udp | tcpudp | icmp | all ] : [ IP Range | Ports Range ]Here’s some examples that demonstrate how to create a filter string:
- Display only packets with remote tcp port 80 (Web sites):
include:remote:tcp:80 - Display only packets with remote tcp port 80 (Web sites) and udp port 53 (DNS):
include:remote:tcp:80
include:remote:udp:53 - Display only packets originated from the following IP address range: 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.100:
include:remote:all:192.168.0.1-192.168.0.100 - Display only TCP and UDP packets that use the following port range: 53 — 139:
include:both:tcpudp:53-139 - Filter most BitTorrent packets (port 6881):
exclude:both:tcpupd:6881 - Filter all ICMP packets (Ping/Traceroute activity):
exclude:both:icmp
Notice: A single filter string must not include spaces !
