Wireshark - target ip?

[ivrytwr3]

Using wireshark can you input an IP and use that to monitor traffic on that network? (I'm talking an IP in another part of the country).

yeah, i thought so, i just couldn't get my head around what they were proposing! They are convinced they can plugin an ip and information gather (and were very animated about it).
