Hi Aaron,

you are right, I tried to perform the exact test you suggested but I encountered a problem.

When I issue the command

bwctl -T iperf -y J -u -c <receiver ip>

 

from the Raspberry I get:

 

bwctl: Requested tools supporting the requested options not available by both servers. See the '-T' option

bwctl: Available tools that support the requested options: iperf3

 

I also compiled bwctl by running

./configure --enable-iperf --enable-nuttcp --with-iperf3=/usr/local/bin/iperf3

 

to explicitly support iperf. So I thought to go by direct call to iperf3.

 

Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to help investigating.

 

Gaetano

Hi Gaetano,

Hi,

thank you, I was able to install iperf on the Raspberry by means pf apt-get.

Coming to Aaron’s question below, I was able to run iperf3

 

iperf3 -u -c <always the same receiver>

 

from the Raspberry and it worked, so it seems more a bwctl issue, correct?

 

I’m trying to narrow it down to bwctl or bwctl when running iperf3, which is why i suggested doing a specifically bwctl/iperf test.

 

Cheers,

Aaron

 

Have a nice day

Gaetano

I usually get iperf by doing "apt-get install iperf" on a standard Raspbian install...

Thank you but I am actually looking for Iperf in order to follow Aaron 's suggestion. 

 

Thanks

Hi Aaron,
Thank you for your kind answer.
I will surely try but would you please point me to the repository for Iperf?

Thank you
Gaetano
