Iperf for Mac

Iperf 3.1.3 LATEST

macOS X 10.12 Sierra or later

Iperf for Mac 2021 full offline installer setup for Mac

iPerf for Mac is a tool for active measurements of the maximum achievable bandwidth on IP networks. It supports tuning of various parameters related to timing, buffers and protocols (TCP, UDP, SCTP with IPv4 and IPv6). For each test it reports the bandwidth, loss, and other parameters. This is a new implementation that shares no code with the original iPerf for macOS and also is not backwards compatible.

Features and Highlights

• Measure bandwidth
• Report MSS/MTU size and observed read sizes.
• Support for TCP window size via socket buffers.
• Client can create UDP streams of specified bandwidth.
• Measure packet loss
• Measure delay jitter
• Multicast capable
• Client and server can have multiple simultaneous connections (-P option).
• Server handles multiple connections, rather than quitting after a single test.
• Can run for specified time (-t option), rather than a set amount of data to transfer (-n or -k option).
• Print periodic, intermediate bandwidth, jitter, and loss reports at specified intervals (-i option).
• Run the server as a daemon (-D option)
• Use representative streams to test out how link layer compression affects your achievable bandwidth (-F option).
• A server accepts a single client simultaneously (iPerf3) multiple clients simultaneously (iPerf2)
• New: Ignore TCP slowstart (-O option).
• New: Set target bandwidth for UDP and (new) TCP (-b option).
• New: Set IPv6 flow label (-L option)
• New: Set congestion control algorithm (-C option)
• New: Use SCTP rather than TCP (—sctp option)
• New: Output in JSON format (-J option).
• New: Disk read test (server: iperf3 -s / client: iperf3 -c testhost -i1 -F filename)
• New: Disk write tests (server: iperf3 -s -F filename / client: iperf3 -c testhost -i1)

Installing iPerf on a Mac OS X system

It can be used to determine available bandwidth using both Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) data streams.

To install an already compiled version of iPerf on a Mac OS X system, such as a MacBook Pro laptop, download the Apple macOS Intel 64bits version. The latest version is a 3.x version. You will need matching versions on both the client and server systems. E.g., a 2.x version on both or a 3.x version on both. The software is available in ZIP file format. If you double-click on the zip file in the Apple Finder application, a Unix Executable File will be extracted from the .zip file, e.g., iperf3 . You can move the file to the Applications/Utilities directory or place it wherever you like on the system.

To run the program, open a Terminal window — the Terminal application is found in the Applications/Utilities directory. If you type /pathtofile/iperf3 -h , where pathtofile is the location where you placed the executable file, for the iperf3 version you will see the following «help» information on the usage of the program:

If you run iPerf version 3in server mode with the command iperf -s , you will see the following:

Version 3 of the program listens on TCP port 5201 by default whereas version 2.x versions listen on TCP port 5001 by default.

You will also see a window open with the following question (image):

Do you want the application «iperf3» to
accept incoming network connections?

Clicking Deny may limit the application’s behavior.
This setting can be changed in the Firewall pane of
Security & Privacy preferences.

You will need to click on Allow to allow external systems running iPerf in client mode to connect to the system. You can terminate the program from the command line by hitting control-C , i.e., hit the control and c keys simultaneously.

You can check on whether iPerf is allowed to listen for incoming connections on an OS X system by the following steps:

1. Click on the Apple icon at the top, left-hand corner of the screen and select System Preferences.
2. Click on Security & Privacy.
3. Click on the Firewall tab. If the padlock icon is showing a closed lock, click on it to unlock it, which will require that you provide credentials for an account with administrator level access to the system.

Then click on Firewall Options. You should see iPerf listed. If you see «Block incoming connections» click on «Block incoming connections» and choose «Allow incoming connections» instead.

You can then close the Security & Privacy window.

You can determine if iperf is allowed to accept incoming connections from a command line interface (CLI), e.g., a Terminal window — the Terminal program is found in the Applications/Utilities directory — by using the socketfilterfw —listapps command as shown below:

The above command shows the status of firewall rules for other applications as well; you can restrict the displayed output to just the rule for iperf with the command shown below:

If the firewall software on the system is blocking incoming connectivity to iperf, you would see the following, instead.

To run iPerf in client mode to connect to an external iPerf system, use the command iperf -c remotehost where remotehost is the IP address or fully qualified domain name (FQDN) for the remote system. E.g., the iPerf output included below is from a test to a publicly available iPerf server, bouygues.testdebit.info .

How to perform a more recent installation of Iperf than the one included in Ubuntu / Debian / Mint ?

Tutorial for Debian / Ubuntu based distributions

Install Iperf 3.9 via the command line :

Packages are manually installed via the dpkg command (Debian Package Management System). dpkg is the backend to commands like apt and aptitude, which in turn are the backend for GUI install apps like the Software Center and Synaptic.

— Ubuntu 64 bits / Debian 64 bits / Mint 64 bits (AMD64) :

1. sudo apt remove iperf3 libiperf0
2. sudo apt install libsctp1
3. wget https://iperf.fr/download/ubuntu/libiperf0_3.9-1_amd64.deb
4. wget https://iperf.fr/download/ubuntu/iperf3_3.9-1_amd64.deb
5. sudo dpkg -i libiperf0_3.9-1_amd64.deb iperf3_3.9-1_amd64.deb
6. rm libiperf0_3.9-1_amd64.deb iperf3_3.9-1_amd64.deb

— Ubuntu 32 bits / Debian 32 bits / Mint 32 bits (i386) :

1. sudo apt remove iperf3 libiperf0
2. sudo apt install libsctp1
3. wget https://iperf.fr/download/ubuntu/libiperf0_3.9-1_i386.deb
4. wget https://iperf.fr/download/ubuntu/iperf3_3.9-1_i386.deb
5. sudo dpkg -i libiperf0_3.9-1_i386.deb iperf3_3.9-1_i386.deb
6. rm libiperf0_3.9-1_i386.deb iperf3_3.9-1_i386.deb

— Remove iPerf :

• sudo apt remove iperf3 libiperf0

Install Iperf 3.1.3 with Graphical installation :

1. Remove the old version installed of iperf3 with «Ubuntu Software Center» or «Synaptic».

Downoad iperf3 and libiperf0

• Linux x86 64 bits : iperf3_3.1.3-1_amd64.deb + libiperf0_3.1.3-1_amd64.deb
• Linux x86 32 bits : iperf3_3.1.3-1_i386.deb + libiperf0_3.1.3-1_i386.deb

It is important to first install libiperf0 by double clicking on the file :

You must then install iperf3 by double clicking on the file :
