Pipe names should be either the name of a FIFO (named pipe) or "-" to
read data from the standard input. On Windows systems, pipe names must be
of the form "\\pipe\.\B<pipename>". Data read from pipes must be in
standard pcapng or pcap format. Pcapng data must have the same
endianness as the capturing host.
This option can occur multiple times. When capturing from multiple
interfaces, the capture file will be saved in pcapng format.
Note: the Win32 version of B<Dumpcap> doesn't support capturing from
pipes or stdin!
