Capturing traffic of Virtual machines!!

Sniffing traffic of Virtual machines is very useful when it comes to testing operating systems and applications, this helps you to check for a wide range of bugs. In our demonstration we will be using Wireshark with VMware and the test system is Ubuntu 15.0  machine.


How to?

1. Click on edit virtual machine settings.And select Network Adapter and set Network connection property to custom and then select the interface.
2. Now start the virtual machine and leave it running.
3. Now fire Wireshark and start sniffing the VMware interface.
4. And at the end you will be able to sniff everything going and coming out of the Virtual machine.
