What is Iperf?

While tools to measure network performance, such as ttcp, exist, most are very
old and have confusing options. Iperf was developed as a modern alternative for
measuring TCP and UDP bandwidth performance.

Iperf is a tool to measure maximum TCP bandwidth, allowing the tuning of various
parameters and UDP characteristics. Iperf reports bandwidth, delay jitter,
datagram loss.
