-===== -. [CO2] Implementing the Applications and Tools ===== 
-In order to describe and analyze the basic steps for installing and using the tools and client/server applications, we need to look carefully to these 4 applications: iperf, flent, VLC, HTTP. 
  
-Let's start with the application iperf:+The two routers allocate IP addresses using DHCP. In order to facilitate the usage of the platform, fixed allocations are configured for the end hosts. This is configured in ''/etc/config/dhcp'on each router as in the following.  
  
-  * To activate iperf3: 
-     * Ordered List Item On the server side: <code bash> iperf3 -s </code> 
-     * On the client side: <code bash> iperf3 -c 192.168.200.192 </code> 
- 
-  * To visualize UDP trafic with a specific bandwidth: 
-   * On the client side: <code bash> iperf3 -c 192.168.200.192 -u -b 2M </code> 
-Here we set the bandwidth with UDP to 2Mbit/s. 
-Note that by default ,UDP sets the bandwidth to 1Mbit/s 
- 
-  * To extend the transmission time(second) as well as the number packets sent: 
-   * On the Client side: <code bash> iperf3 -c 192.168.200.192 -t 15 </code> 
-Note that  by default, iperf3 sets the time to 10 seconds 
- 
-  * To reverse mode(server sends, client receives): 
-   * On the Client side: <code bash> iper3 -c 192.168.200.192 -R  </code> 
-  * To send multiple flows: 
-          * On the client side: <code bash> iper3 -c 192.168.200.192 -P 2 -t 60 </code> 
-Here we are sending 2 flows in 1 min(60 seconds) 
-Note that we need to extend more the tx time in order to have similar throughput for the 2 flows so that we don't consider it as a fairness issue.

 +</WRAP> 
 + 
 +In order to describe and analyze the basic steps for installing and using the tools and client/server applications, we need to look carefully to these four applications: iperf, flent, VLC, HTTP. 
 +==== -. iperf tool ==== 
 + 
 +Let us start with the application iperf. In the following, we present a short tutorial on the main functions of the perf tool. 
 + 
 +  * To launch iperf3: 
 +    * On the server side: ''iperf3 -s'' 
 +    * On the client side: ''iperf3 -c 192.168.200.192'', where 192.168.200.192is the IP address of the server. 
 + 
 +  * By default, the trafic sent by iperf uses TCP. In order to send UDP trafic with a specific bandwidth: 
 +    * On the client side: iperf3 -c 192.168.200.192 -u -b 2M 
 + 
 +Here we set the bandwidth with UDP to 2Mbit/s. Note that by default, UDP sets the bandwidth to 1Mbit/s. 
 + 
 +  * To extend the transmission time(second) as well as the number packets sent: 
 +     * On the Client side: ''iperf3 -c 192.168.200.192 -t 15'' 
 + 
 +Note that by default, iperf3 sets the time to 10 seconds. 
 + 
 +  * To use reverse mode (server sends the trafic and client receives): 
 +    * On the Client side: ''iper3 -c 192.168.200.192 -R''  
 + 
 +  * To send multiple flows: 
 +    * On the Client side: ''iper3 -c 192.168.200.192 -P 2 -t 60'' 
 + 
 +Here we are sending two flows for one minute (60 seconds). We note that the average rate for the two flows can be different. However, this is not a fairness issue: we only need to extend the transmit time in order to have similar throughput for the two flows. 
 + 
 +==== -. Flent Tool ==== 
 + 
 +Let us now analyze [[ https://flent.org/index.html | Flent]] application. Flent is a network benchmarking tools which allows to easily run network tests. 
 + 
 +  * On the Server side: ''netserver &'' 
 +  * To sent one TCP stream from the client to the server: 
 +    * On the Client side:  ''flent tcp_upload -p totals -l 60 -H 192.168.200.192 -t title2 -o test2.png'' 
 +  * To send 12 TCP streams: 
 +     * On the Client side:  ''flent tcp_12up -p totals -l 60 -H 192.168.200.192 -t title3 -o test3.png''
