-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 ESnet (Energy Sciences Network) announces the availability of iperf 3.6. This release adds two new options: --extra-data can be used to include some user-defined data in the JSON output, and the --repeating-payload option can be used to specify a pattern of payload bytes similar to iperf2. Several minor bugs were also fixed. More information on this and other changes is available in the RELEASE_NOTES file in the source distribution.
iperf 3.6 should be fully backward-compatible with prior iperf3 releases, that is, iperf 3.6 clients and servers should interoperate correctly with all 3.x clients and servers. Note however that users running iperf 3.6 with the bwctl utility (perhaps as a part of a perfSONAR 3.x installation) need to ensure they are using bwctl version 1.6.3 or newer. iperf3 is a tool for measuring the maximum TCP, UDP, and SCTP throughput along a path, allowing for the tuning of various parameters and reporting measurements such as throughput, jitter, and datagram packet loss. It is fully supported on Linux, FreeBSD, and macOS. It may run on other platforms as well, although it has not received the same attention and testing. Note that iperf3 is not compatible with, and will not interoperate with, version 2 or earlier of iperf. The source code for iperf 3.6 is available at: https://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/iperf-3.6.tar.gz SHA256 hash: de5d51e46dc460cc590fb4d44f95e7cad54b74fea1eba7d6ebd6f8887d75946e iperf-3.6.tar.gz NOTE: As of 22 June 2018, the download server for iperf3 supports retrievals via HTTPS. For backwards compatibility with old URLs (for example in prior iperf3 release announcements), attempted retrievals via HTTP will be redirected to use HTTPS. iperf3 is freely-redistributable under a 3-clause BSD license.
