Post Virtualbox installation - Capturing Live Data - Sniffing
I have downloaded and installed Xplico using Virtualbox. However, I am unable to determine if there is a way to capture live data from the network from Virtualbox. So far, I am only able to capture date from the Host only. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

Hello,
good question. Yes, there is a way. I think you have the network card in your Virtualbox settings as NAT, instead of "Bridge". So you are only adquiring the data of this private network.

To get all the data that reaches your phisical card, change in the Virtualbox settings of your Xplico machine the config of the network card, from NAT to Bridge.

This will show all the data that you could see with another sniffer. But don't forget that if you are connected to your network with a switch, you won't get the data of other users. In that case you'll need a hub or any silly hardware.
