NAME
iperf - perform network throughput testsSYNOPSIS
iperf -s [ options ]iperf -c server [ options ]
iperf -u -s [ options ]
iperf -u -c server [ options ]
DESCRIPTION
iperf is a tool for performing network throughput measurements. It can test either TCP or UDP throughput. To perform an iperf test the user must establish both a server (to discard traffic) and a client (to generate traffic).GENERAL OPTIONS
- -f, --format
- [kmKM] format to report: Kbits, Mbits, KBytes, MBytes
- -h, --help
- print a help synopsis
- -i, --interval n
- pause n seconds between periodic bandwidth reports
- -l, --len n[KM]
- set length read/write buffer to n (default 8 KB)
- -m, --print_mss
- print TCP maximum segment size (MTU - TCP/IP header)
- -o, --output <filename>
- output the report or error message to this specified file
- -p, --port n
- set server port to listen on/connect to to n (default 5001)
- -u, --udp
- use UDP rather than TCP
- -w, --window n[KM]
- TCP window size (socket buffer size)
- -B, --bind <host>
- bind to <host>, an interface or multicast address
- -C, --compatibility
- for use with older versions does not sent extra msgs
- -M, --mss n
- set TCP maximum segment size (MTU - 40 bytes)
- -N, --nodelay
- set TCP no delay, disabling Nagle's Algorithm
- -v, --version
- print version information and quit
- -V, --IPv6Version
- Set the domain to IPv6
- -x, --reportexclude
- [CDMSV] exclude C(connection) D(data) M(multicast) S(settings) V(server) reports
- -y, --reportstyle C|c
- if set to C or c report results as CSV (comma separated values)
SERVER SPECIFIC OPTIONS
- -s, --server
- run in server mode
- -U, --single_udp
- run in single threaded UDP mode
- -D, --daemon
- run the server as a daemon
CLIENT SPECIFIC OPTIONS
- -b, --bandwidth n[KM]
- set target bandwidth to n bits/sec (default 1 Mbit/sec). This setting requires UDP (-u).
- -c, --client <host>
- run in client mode, connecting to <host>
- -d, --dualtest
- Do a bidirectional test simultaneously
- -n, --num n[KM]
- number of bytes to transmit (instead of -t)
- -r, --tradeoff
- Do a bidirectional test individually
- -t, --time n
- time in seconds to transmit for (default 10 secs)
- -F, --fileinput <name>
- input the data to be transmitted from a file
- -I, --stdin
- input the data to be transmitted from stdin
- -L, --listenport n
- port to recieve bidirectional tests back on
- -P, --parallel n
- number of parallel client threads to run
- -T, --ttl n
- time-to-live, for multicast (default 1)
- -Z, --linux-congestion <algo>
- set TCP congestion control algorithm (Linux only)
ENVIRONMENT
- TCP_WINDOW_SIZE
- Controls the size of TCP buffers.
DIAGNOSTICS
This section needs to be filled in.BUGS
Exit statuses are inconsistent. The threading implementation is rather heinous.AUTHORS
