10. Setting up an Iperf Test
10.1 Required Equipment
• Two laptops with jperf installed. It is beyond the scope of this manual to cover the
installation and operation of these tools. The laptops must be on the same subnet but not
necessarily the same subnet as the radios (172.20.xx.yy). It is not required for the user to
set a secondary IP address on the radio to perform this test. It is recommended the iperf
or jperf tests are first conducted between the laptops using an Ethernet switch or cross-
over Ethernet cable between them to verify the laptops and iperf/jperf tools.
• Two or more StreamCaster radios properly configured.
10.2 Running Iperf Test
• Connect a laptop to one StreamCaster radio using the Ethernet cable.
• Connect the other laptop to another StreamCaster radio.
• Power up the radios and verify the radios are booted and connected wirelessly.
• At the receiver side type the following in a terminal
o iperf –s –u -i 1
• At the transmitter side type the following in a terminal
o iperf –c receiver_laptop_ip_address –u –i 1 –b 1M –t 60
