In this case, I have added the -i option, to have report information each 1 seconds, and the -t parameter to establish the length of the test, in our case 20 seconds. Now you can start a client in which you are going to test the Upload performance from the client to the server (Client -> Server). To leave the iPerf server running: iperf3 -s In our case, using iPerf3, the listening port is 5201. The server node is listening for new connections. To run a quick bandwidth test, first you have to identify the server node, and the client node. In the tests done in this post, we are going to use iPerf3.
#TAMOSOFT THROUGHPUT TEST VS IPERF CODE#
Finally, the code of iPerf3 is smaller, and it is optimized. Also, it has a better implementation to perform UDP tests. IPerf3 adds additional features, such as reports of TCP retransmit info, and the verbose mode gives a lot of useful information on CPU usage…etc. In iPerf2, the default port is 5001, and in iPerf3, 5201. The functionality between iPerf2 and iPerf3 are mostly compatible, however you should know they use different ports by default.
iPerf3 is a new implementation from scratch, with the goal of a smaller, simpler code base, and a library version of the functionality that can be used in other programs. It started ttcp from the National Laboratory for Applied Network Research (NLANR), and then it was developed iPerf (iPerf 2). There has been different versions of this tool in the last years. iPerf2 vs iPerf3, what is the difference? # It can be used to do stress tests of the Ethernet, Wi-Fi or of your ISP. You could use to measure the maximum bandwidth of the network between a client and a server.
It is a really simple, powerful CLI which allows generating traffic / load TCP or UDP between 2 hosts. IPerf is a tool designed to test the bandwidth between two hosts using the network.
