Iperf

This document describes how to use the iperf tool to test network bandwidth using single and multiple parallel network connections. The iperf command connects to a remote host and measures bandwidth over 100MB of data transfer by default. Using the -P option allows running multiple parallel iperf connections to measure the combined bandwidth of N connections simultaneously. An example shows running 3 parallel connections, displaying the individual and total bandwidth results.
