ttcp is a tool that allows you to measure the raw performance of your network.
I ported it to OS/2 because I wanted to check the performance of my own LAN,
especially between my OS/2 machine and my linux box.
requirements
------------
this program requires emx v0.9c runtime to work. And a TCP/IP stack. The OS/2
port was tested on one machine only, running TCP/IP v4.1.
how it works?
-------------
To check your network, you need at least two machines :-) connected to a net;
one will be the server while the other will be the client.
Just install ttcp by putting it in the current directory or in a pathed,
directory; start the server first by typing at a command prompt:
23:41:49,51 [D:\] ttcp -r -s
ttcp-r: buflen=8192, nbuf=2048, align=16384/0, port=5001 tcp
ttcp-r: socket
then start the client:
$ ttcp -t -s
ttcp-t: buflen=8192, nbuf=2048, align=16384/0, port=5001 tcp -> picard
ttcp-t: socket
ttcp-t: connect
after some thinking it will spit out some stats:
ttcp-t: 16777216 bytes in 14.88 real seconds = 1101.09 KB/sec +++
ttcp-t: 2048 I/O calls, msec/call = 7.44, calls/sec = 137.64
ttcp-t: 0.0user 2.1sys 0:14real 14% 0i+0d 0maxrss 0+2pf 0+0csw
that's all. The program wasn't tested too much, and I'm not making any
warranties: there's only thing for sure, it will take space on your DASD...
contact?
--------
Well, I really don't see any reason why you should want to contact me about
this program, so don't bother writing me at whiz@iol.it...
