Thanks Kurt can please let me know how to do silent install for the WinPcap 4.1.3 as silent installation of wireshark didn't install WinPcap.

Unfortunately there is no silent installer for WinPcap! There are however descriptions how to do it 'manually'

http://paperlined.org/apps/wireshark/winpcap_silent_install.html

or how to automate the installation with AutoIT.

As an alternative: Build your own WinPcap installer with NSIS (or your preferred windows installer tool) to allow a silent installation.

Sorry, currently no other option...
