check through put

check through put

[Gian Sartor]

Hi All,

I am fairly new to netfilter/iptables and am wondering if there is a 
quick way to check the throughput of our firewall. We are having some 
network issues and suspect the firewall as being the bottleneck.

Thanks in advance.

iperf

You could also do (if running an apt based system):

apt-cache search net benchmark
apt-cache search net performance
apt-cache search net throughput
etc.

to get some other utilities/packages.
