A pen tester is configuring a Windows laptop for a test. In setting up Wireshark, what river and library are required to allow the NIC to work in promiscuous mode?

Libpcap is the Unix/Linux equivalent of WinPcap and is not compatible with Windows operating systems.

Awinpcap is not a real packet capture driver or library and does not exist in any recognized network capture framework.

Winprom is not a valid packet capture library or driver and does not exist as a tool for enabling promiscuous mode on Windows.

WinPcap is the Windows packet capture architecture consisting of a kernel-level driver and a user-space DLL that gives Wireshark low-level network access and the ability to set the NIC to promiscuous mode. Without WinPcap (or its modern successor Npcap) installed, Wireshark cannot capture packets below the socket layer on Windows systems.
