Re: Packet filtering in iperf


When running iperf in server mode, the -c option will restrict the client IP address that can be connected.

Presumably this should reduce the received throughput reported by iperf, else it's yet another bug (refer to my earlier posting for a list of unanswered defects/anomalies).

cheers.

Dear all,

I'm new in iperf and I would like to ask a question about iperf's capability. Is that possible for iperf to do packet filtering?

For example, I want to filter packet from specific source address (either IP or MAC address) and reduce the packet received rate or reduce the throughput to some specific value.

Thank you
