Hi Vam

I have answered a similar question in the past.

If the VM is running on your local PC then you should be able to capture it but you need to know how the VM is configured to reach the outside world.

Bridge mode

VM has its own IP address (sometimes called Bridged Networking) and uses your NIC.

You should be able to use a pretty simple display filter to show the traffic for that IP address only.

ip.addr == 1.2.3.4

NAT mode

VM "shares" the NIC with the host.

Filtering the traffic may prove more difficult because you won't be able to easily tell if the traffic is coming from the VM from the host.

You'll have better chance of capturing the HTTP if you don't run ANYTHING else on the host when you capture the traffic.

http should display the HTTP traffic you are looking for.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Spooky
