Feature Request - Possibility to implement additional arguments parameter for iperf3 #21

Open lealog opened 3 years ago

lealog commented 3 years ago

It would be perfect if you can implement an additional parameter to pass different options for iperf3 test.

Example: iperf3_tcp_server_args_x: iperf3_udp_server_args_x:

Some additional arguments that could make sense to use:

--sctp use SCTP rather than TCP -X, --xbind bind SCTP association to links --nstreams # number of SCTP streams -P, --parallel # number of parallel client streams to run -l, --length #[KMG] length of buffer to read or write -R, --reverse run in reverse mode (server sends, client receives) -w, --window #[KMG] set window size / socket buffer size -C, --congestion set TCP congestion control algorithm (Linux and FreeBSD only) -M, --set-mss # set TCP/SCTP maximum segment size (MTU - 40 bytes) -N, --no-delay set TCP/SCTP no delay, disabling Nagle's Algorithm -S, --tos N set the IP type of service, 0-255. The usual prefixes for octal and hex can be used, i.e. 52, 064 and 0x34 all specify the same value. --dscp N or --dscp val set the IP dscp value, either 0-63 or symbolic. Numeric values can be specified in decimal, octal and hex (see --tos above). -L, --flowlabel N set the IPv6 flow label (only supported on Linux) -Z, --zerocopy use a 'zero copy' method of sending data -O, --omit N omit the first n seconds --repeating-payload use repeating pattern in payload, instead of randomized payload (like in iperf2) --username username for authentication --rsa-public-key-path path to the RSA public key used to encrypt authentication credentials

Maybe in the future when current round of features are tested & fixed.
