Product Information
What is Nuttcp?
nuttcp is a network performance measurement tool designed for network and system administrators. Its most basic function is to determine raw TCP (or UDP) network layer throughput by transferring memory buffers from a source system to a destination system over an interconnected network—either for a specified time interval or until a set amount of data is transmitted. Beyond reporting the achieved network throughput in Mbps, nuttcp also provides additional useful information related to data transfer, such as user, system, and wall-clock time, transmitter and receiver CPU utilization, and the percentage of loss (for UDP transmissions).
How to use Nuttcp?
Nuttcp is a network performance measurement tool primarily for network and system administrators, determining raw TCP or UDP throughput by transmitting memory buffers and providing detailed metrics like throughput and CPU utilization.
