Abstract

This article presents a new tool for network throughput and stress testing. The FlowPing tool is easy to use, and its basic output is very similar to standard Linux ping application. The FlowPing tool is not limited to reach-ability or round trip time testing but is capable of complex UDP based throughput stress testing with rich reporting capabilities on client and server sides. Our new tool implements features, which allow the user to perform tests with variable packet size and traffic rate. All these features can be used in one single test run. This allows the user to use and develop new methodologies for network throughput and stress testing. With the FlowPing tool, it is easy to perform the test with the slowly increasing the amount of network traffic and monitor the behavior of network when the congestion occurs.

Highlights

  • In this article, we would like to introduce the new tool for network throughput and stress testing

  • The FlowPing tool monly used open source tools is that our tool allows us can be run on several platforms like x86-32, x86-64 and to examine the behavior of networks in reaction to the ARM

  • The basic output of this tool is capable of generating complex variable traffic flows is similar to well known ping application
