Hi all I'm trying to measure the UDP throughput to several hosts on a network that isn't very reliable (broadband power line).
It's a study to check if the low voltage power grid of a city can be used as a network to collect small power meter packets (some hundred bytes). When I use screen and run `iperf -su` on all hosts, I get wrong results because iperf server uses the time when it was started to divide the data send to get the bandwidth. Could this be avoided by setting the packet ID for each new Packet? If yes, how can I do that? In the first place I wanted to start the iperf server via ssh sent the packet, receive the server response and kill iperf server again via ssh. Unfortunately the network is not reliable enough for that. That's why I'll probably use `ping -s` instead. Any help is very much appreciated.
