perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Domenico Vicinanza <>]

Hi Ralph,

if you need iperf 2.0.2 RPMs, you can download them here: 
http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/iperf/

For example, having a 64bit RHEL5 machine you can perform the installation by 
executing:

# wget 
http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/iperf/iperf-2.0.2-2.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm

followed by:

# yum localinstall --nogpgcheck iperf-2.0.2-2.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Domenico
