31.2.6.5. TCP/UDP Throughput Test

31.2.6.5.1. Overview

This example shows TCP/UDP throughput performance test through iperf (https://iperf.fr/iperf-download.php) with a total of four mode as follows:

  • MCU acts as TCP Server / PC acts as TCP Client

  • MCU acts as TCP Client / PC acts as TCP Server

  • MCU acts as UDP Server / PC acts as UDP Client

  • MCU acts as UDP Client / PC acts as UDP Server

31.2.6.5.2. Board Setting

  • Connect a USB port on PC to the PWR DEBUG port on the development board with a USB Type-C cable

  • Connect an Ethernet port on PC to a RGMII port or a RMII port on the development board with an Ethernet cable

31.2.6.5.3. Project Configuration

  • Ethernet Port Settings: Refer to Ethernet common project settings

  • By set(CONFIG_ECLIPSE_THREADX_NETXDUO_ADDONS_DHCP 1) in CMakeLists.txt, the DHCP will be enabled

31.2.6.5.4. Run Example

  • Compiling and Downloading

  • Wait until the link status becomes ‘Up’. Accessing web addresses using a browser http://192.168.1.223 (Related to the configuration in the demo. If dhcp is enabled, replace the ip address with the alloted one), the following IPerf test page will open.

Netx Iperf Web Page

  • Use IPerf tools on the PC side and web pages for testing. (You can use gui tools such as jperf or iperf cmd line). Iperf3 is not supported.
