Re: [OSL | CCIE_RS] how to use iperf with GNS3

Just out of curiosity, why would you want to use iperf in GNS3? I don't think it makes a lot of sense to do 'throughput' testing on these virtual boxes :-) The throughput of a Dynamips router is very low. -- Regards, Rick Mur CCIE2 #21946 (RS / Service Provider) Sr. Support Engineer –

I was thinking the same thing actually... The only real reason I can think of would be to see if your QoS is doing its job and seeing via iPerf what traffic was being dropped/shaped. Cheers, Matt CCIE #22386 CCSI #31207 2009/12/21 Rick Mur r...@ipexpert.com: Just out of curiosity, why would

I think it's to just test the technology. And to see how iperf is working ... I mean isn't that the whole point of Dynamips/GNS3? To just see if it works and learn the technology? You also do not use Dynamips or GNS3 equipment to route production traffic (just because it's possible) --

Hi Taqdir, You need to bind 2 real pfisocal interfaces to 2 of your virtual GNS3 routers (that of course are connected to eachother) Cased on this you can use 2 real physical machines where you have iperf installed on ... You can also conncet VMNETWORK interfacses to the router interfaces if you
