To start an ipPerf session: 1. Configure the receiver test endpoint using the CP CLI. The syntax for invoking the receiver test endpoint using ipPerf for slot8, port ge0 on an FR4-18i is as follows: portcmd --ipperf 8/ge0 -s 192.168.255.10 -d 192.168.255.100 -R 2. Configure the sender test endpoint using a similar CP CLI. The syntax for invoking the sender test endpoint using ipPerf for slot8, port ge0 on an FR4-18i is as follows: portcmd --ipperf 8/ge0 -s 192.168.255.100 -d 192.168.255.10 -S The following example shows the results of the performance analysis for slot 8, port ge0: ipperf to 192.168.255.10 from IP interface 192.168.255.100 on 8/0:3227 30s: BW:113.03MBps WBW(30s): 55.39MBps Loss(%):0.0 Delay(ms):1 PMTU:1500 60s: BW:108.89MBps WBW(30s): 83.08MBps Loss(%):0.0 Delay(ms):0 PMTU:1500 90s: BW:112.59MBps WBW(30s): 96.93MBps Loss(%):0.0 Delay(ms):0 PMTU:1500 120s: BW:108.93MBps WBW(30s): 103.85MBps Loss(%):0.0 Delay(ms):0 PMTU:1500 150s: BW:112.36MBps WBW(30s): 107.32MBps Loss(%):0.0 Delay(ms):0 PMTU:1500 In the example above, BW represents Bandwidth and Delay represents the round-trip-time (RTT) in milliseconds. The output is printed after each display interval (if you do not specify an interval, the default is 30 seconds). In the output, data is displayed as follows: • First column-Time elapsed since the start of the test. • Second column-Bandwidth observed in the last display interval using the following units: • MBps-megabytes per second. • Mbps-megabits per second • KBps-kilobytes per second • Kbps-kilobits per second • Bps-bytes per second • bps-bits per second • Third column-The 30s weighted bandwidth WAN tool ipPerf syntax When using the portCmd ipPerf option, you must specify the following: • Source IP address. If the ipPerf is started with -S (source mode), the port number specified is the remote peer's port number to connect to. • Destination IP address. • Source (transmitter) or sink (receiver). If the ipPerf is started with -R (sink mode), the port number and source IP address will be used to listen for new connections. If the options are not specified the following defaults apply: • Default port -3227 • Default runtime-forever • Default display (refresh) interval-30 seconds Fabric OS 6.1.x administrator guide 409
