Hi,

A dual test means that you are sending the receiving simultaneously.

Your network is probably "Full Duplex" so the maximum bidirectional bandwidth 
is 200Mbit ( minus protocol headers ).


Thanks,

Subject: [Iperf-users] IPerf 2.0.8 Dualtest

Hello,

I have done a dualtest with iperf:
On server I execute: iperf -s
And on client: iperf -c <server_ip> -d

The output shows me in addition more bandwidth than my network (100MBit/s) has:
[  5]  0.0-10.0 sec    103 MBytes  86.6 Mbits/sec
[  4]  0.0-10.0 sec    101 MBytes  84.4 Mbits/sec
That is approxiametly 170 MBits/sec and not 100 MBit in maximum.

I searched the web for the problem, but the only reason I found is the window 
size.
I changed it between 50 kb and 1500 kb on client and server but it has no 
effect (perhaps 5MBit/s).

Is there an other explaination for my problem?

Regards
Frank
