The problem is that the command substitution (the thing between the parens)
is run once when you press [enter]. It is not run for each matching file
name. You need to do this via a script. Something like (untested):
find /search/path -iname "*.pcap" -print0 | while read -z path
set -l basename (basename $path)
/path/to/tool -para1 $path -para2 /tmp/results/$basename
end
