How to test super fast internet like 10gbps (THEORETICALLY, MIGHT NOT WORK)
Go to solution
Solved by mynameisjuan,
1 - Most service provider that provide 10gig have it hosted internally, they need an official way to test their equipment. The Ciena's that they deployed for linus have native bandwidth test, I know be cause we deploy them.
2 - Your test relies on two publicly facing devices without a router
3 - Lets say you do have a router, with a single connection, the two IPs are going to exist on the same router (even if in different subnets) so its going to route right through the router to each device, never leaving it.There is a way around this but beyond the scope of this post.
4 - 9.4Gbps is what you will get with overhead
5 - iPerf is the only way to go
