Hello.
What does it mean "Windows OT?"
 
Serial support refers to PPP (and possibly HDLC) framed captures only. SLIP and non-networked connections are not supported.
Loopback support refers to UNIX-style loopback devices, which are software-only network interfaces used in most UNIX systems to handle packets sent from a machine to itself, either by sending to its own IP address or to a loopback IP address such as 127.0.0.1.

[7] Windows does not have a UNIX-style loopback interface; there is a Microsoft Loopback Adapter available for some versions of Windows, but, unlike UNIX-style loopback interfaces, it's not a standard interface that is used for all loopback traffic, it's an add-on interface for testing purposes.
