16. CONDUCTING IPERF PERFORMANCE TESTING
The iPerf Test is a standardized network
performance tool used to measure UDP or TCP
capacity and throughput. The AirCheck G2 can
perform iPerf testing with either a NetAlly Test
Accessory or iPerf server software installed on a PC
as the test endpoint.
NOTE: If you are using an iPerf server installed on a
PC as the endpoint, iPerf Version 3.1 or newer is required.
