During OneAgent installation, the host might experience network communication disruption on all input and output ports. The disruption typically lasts until the end of OneAgent installation and is associated with the Npcap installation.
For OneAgent version 1.255+, Npcap is installed by default and may cause a network disruption on:
- Any Windows with network adapters configured on 802.1x authenticated networks
- Windows Server 2019 build 1809 without hotfix KB4571748
- Windows 10 build 1809 without hotfix KB4571748
For OneAgent version 1.253 and earlier, you need to uninstall any existing WinPcap driver to allow Npcap installation. Do this on all Windows versions, except for Windows Server 2019 build 1809 without hotfix KB4571748. For more information, see Uninstall WinPcap driver to allow Npcap installation.
