Starts iPerf on the device in order to perform a bandwidth measurement with an iPerf2 remote station. Possible arguments are:
- Client/server
- -u, --udp: Uses UDP instead of TCP.
- -p, --port <Port>: Connects with or expects data packets on this port (default: 5001).
- -B, --bind <Interface>: Permits the connection only via the specified interface (IP address or interface name).
- Server specific
- -s, --server: Starts iPerf in server mode and waits for an iPerf client to contact it.
- Client specific
- -c, --client <Host>: Starts iPerf in client mode and connects with the iPerf server <Host> (IP address or DNS name).
- -b, --bandwidth [<Bandw>/]<Bandw>{kKmM}: Limit the [down]/up-stream bandwidth when analyzing a UDP connection. This Is specified as kilobytes (kK) or megabytes (mM) per second (default: 1 Mbps).
- -l, --len <Length>: Sets the length of the UDP data packets.
- -t, --time <Time>: Sets the duration of the connection in seconds (default: 10 seconds).
- -d, --dualtest: The test is bidirectional: the iPerf server and client send and receive at the same time.
- -r, --tradeoff: The test is sequential: the iPerf server and client send and receive one after the other.
- -L, --listenport <Port>: Specifies the port where the device in bidirectional mode expects to receive data packets from the remote iPerf server (default: 5001).
- Miscellaneous
- -h, --help: Outputs the help text.
