Use the iPerf service
Your IX20 device includes an iPerf3 server that you can use to test the performance of your network.
iPerf3 is a command-line tool that measures the maximum network throughput an interface can
handle. This is useful when diagnosing network speed issues, to determine, for example, whether a
cellular connection is providing expected throughput.
The IX20 implementation of iPerf3 supports testing with both TCP and UDP.
Note
Using iPerf clients that are at a version earlier than iPerf3 to connect to the IX20 device's iPerf3
server may result in unpredictable results. As a result, Digi recommends using an iPerf client at
version 3 or newer to connect to the IX20 device's iPerf3 server.
Required configuration items
Enable the iPerf server on the IX20 device.
n
An iPerf3 client installed on a remote host. iPerf3 software can be downloaded at

n
When the iPerf server is enabled, the IX20 device will automatically configure its firewall rules
to allow incoming connections on the configured listening port. You can restrict access by
