The Bandwidth Tester The Bandwidth Tester is a java applet written to test inbound and outbound TCP bandwidth from your browser to a web server here at ORNL. We added the tcp kernel variables made available in a web100/net100 kernel to get a clearer picture of what is going on in the network during a test. The official web page for the Bandwidth Tester: http://firebird.ccs.ornl.gov:7123/ As with all software written for research purposes, this software is in constant flux and must come with the usual disclaimers. What you are seeing is a snapshot in time as, most certainly, we are currently modifying it to try out new ideas. This software comes with NO WARRANTY! contents -------- - README_BWAPPLET - source code: fakewww.c Tcpbw100.java web100srv.c web100api.c web100api.h - tcpbw100.html: sample web page - web100_variables: a sample file of web100 variables to display - tcpbw-make: a sample makefile requires -------- - a machine running a kernel.org linux-2.X.XX kernel with the latest web100 patches applied and the web100-userland api installed-- (http://www.web100.org)(You may need to alter the makefile to point to your userland installation) - jdk1.3.1 or later installed feedback -------- We are interested in your feedback and the results of any tests you may run.
