UDP Packet size should not have units assigned to the value #9

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Actiavte UDP protocol
2. Try to enter a sensible UDP packet size
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

jperf will attach the selected unit to the "-l" command. Fractions are not
allowed, so the only usable value is an MTU of 1000 bytes right now.

IMHO the only real-world usable unit here is bytes which is not selectable
at all and should at the very least be there and also be the default.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

jperf 2.0.0 with iperf 2.0.4 on ubuntu 8.10.

Please provide any additional information below.

Except for some fancy fragmentation tests the packet size should be less or
equal to the MTU which is ususally in the area of 1500 bytes, so the
selection of kilos or megas really doesn't make any sense and thus I'd
completely remove the unit selection box for this setting.

this has been fixed in the 2.0.1 version by adding the Bits and Bytes units 
into the
combo boxes. I will change the combos to accept float values (instead of only
integers) in the next version.
