How can I run a sudo terminal command from applescript?

How can I run code "sudo ettercap -C" with sudo permissions in applescript?

display dialog "Start ettercap?" buttons {"Boot", "Cancel"}
do shell script "sudo ettercap -C"

This is for a project i'm doing. Dont ask :D

Instead of sudo use with administrator privileges

display dialog "Start ettercap?" buttons {"Boot", "Cancel"}
do shell script "ettercap -C" with administrator privileges

See Technical Note TN2065: do shell script in AppleScript
