IPERF is a network speed testing tool. It is reliable if you have two servers, and you want to measure network speed between them.
It can be installed using yum
# yum install iperf
For testing, one iperf instance runs as a server on one server and another iperf instance runs as a client on the other server.
For running iperf as a server
# iperf -s
Server listening on TCP port 5001
And for running iperf as a client
# iperf -c 192.168.0.11
Client connecting to 192.168.0.11, TCP port 5001 TCP window size: 16.0 KByte (default)
