Hi Neeraj,

 

Iperf can be used to calculate the Throughput on both the UL (UpLink) and DL
(DownLink).

By default the Client will have the UL and the Server will have the DL.

 

In your case, the ID [3] is UL.

 

Regards,

Anand

Subject: [Iperf-users] UDP measurements: What is [ID]?

 

I'm an iperf newbie. I'm trying to measure UDP bandwidth between for data
going through hosts A->B->C. The client is running on A and generates data
for B. B is set up (using iptables) to nat the data to C. The server is
running on C. The server reports data from what looks like two (or more)
streams with different 'ID's, e.g. IDs [ 3] and [ 6] below. The stream for
ID 3 reports 8 Mbps (which is what I expect) while ID 6 reports 0 bandwidth.
What does the ID signify? I have a single client running. Thanks for your
help.
