Use the iPerf service
Your Connect IT 4 device includes an iPerf3 server that you can use to test the performance of your
network.
iPerf3 is a command-line tool that measures the maximum network throughput an interface can
handle. This is useful when diagnosing network speed issues, to determine, for example, whether a
cellular connection is providing expected throughput.
The Connect IT 4 implementation of iPerf3 supports testing with both TCP and UDP.
Note Using iPerf clients that are at a version earlier than iPerf3 to connect to the Connect IT 4
device's iPerf3 server may result in unpredictable results. As a result, Digi recommends using an iPerf
client at version 3 or newer to connect to the Connect IT 4 device's iPerf3 server.
Required configuration items
n Enable the iPerf server on the Connect IT 4 device.
n An iPerf3 client installed on a remote host. iPerf3 software can be downloaded at
https://iperf.fr/iperf-download.php.
Additional configuration Items
n The port that the Connect IT 4 device's iPerf server will use to listen for incoming connections.
n The access control list for the iPerf server.
When the iPerf server is enabled, the Connect IT 4 device will automatically configure its
firewall rules to allow incoming connections on the configured listening port. You can restrict
access by configuring the access control list for the iPerf server.
To enable the iPerf3 server:
