• iperf –s –u –i <seconds>
Where,
-s indicates the server
-u sends UDP datagrams
–i <seconds> indicates frequency of the status update
• iperf –c <ip_addr> -b <bw> -i <seconds> -t <seconds>
Where,
-c indicates the client
<ip_addr> is the IP address of the server to communicate to
-b <bw> specifies the amount of data to try and pass through as bandwidth
-i <seconds> indicates how often the screen updates the status

4.8.3 Testing Transmit Performance
To test the MRF24WB0MA/B or MRF24WG0MA/B Wi-Fi
®
PICtail™ transmit
performance, set up the following:
1. Computer (command prompt) as the server.
2. PICtail (HyperTerminal session) as the client.
3. A sample of the typical Iperf run for testing the transmit performance on the
computer (server) and Development Board (client), see Figure 4-59 and
Figure 4-60.
