在C＃中获取网络接口名称

Question

I'm writing a program which uses the wPCAP library. I managed to get out the list of interface names:

\\Device\\NPF_{A9734063-CA83-4D91-A35B-CC727749256A ...

Now my question is: how do I know which interface this is? I'm attempting to get the IP of the interface with that name.

I tried the NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces() function, but in those classes I could only find the "readable" name, and not the \\Device... name.

Thank you!

Edit: I need to get the IP address of the device with the name "\\Device\\NPF_...". How do I accomplish this?

Answer 1

My first guess would be that it's more a device problem than a network problem see :

and

Hope this helps

Answer 2

A long time ago I did something similar. Look up the following and I am sure you will find what you are looking for:

IPInterfaceProperties properties = adapter.GetIPProperties();

Answer 3

Actually, I found a solution to circumvent the problem: I just listen on each interface :-S. That does accomplish also a desireable result (namely the logging of each visited web page).

Thank you all!
