This is Iperf v2.0.0, a tool for measuring Internet bandwidth performance. This iperf fork is customized to work with SSL/TLS. This is not super stable but is good for quick testing.

See the doc directory for more documentation.

How to build

  ./build.sh                         # -- Build Iperf
  make install                       # -- install Iperf, if desired

Generic usage

iperf -s               (on machine "foo.bar.edu")
iperf -c foo.bar.edu   (on some other machine)
iperf -h               (for help screen)
iperf -v               (for version information)
iperf -tls=v1.2        (for running in TLS mode)

Examples for testing iperf with ssl/tls :

In server mode:

./src/iperf --tls=v1.2 -s

In client mode :

./src/iperf --tls=v1.2 -c <ip> -t 60 -i 1

Notes about certificates

The pre-generated cert file is in newreq.pem and key is in key.pem which is used by this version of iperf. These are there just for testing purposes. Kindly generate fresh certificates if need be.
