No, it will listen to all of the IPs since it is not doing the capture
based on IP at all but instead on the interface. There just isn't room
to list all of the IPs in the Capture Options window.
In newer versions, I added an ellipsis (" ... ") in the middle of the
list of IPs and it shows the first so many and the last so many
(depending on how wide your window is). I cannot remember if that made
version 0.99.6 or if it is coming in 0.99.7 (I can check if anyone
really wants to know).
