I've found IPERF to work quite well.  TTCP is also great.  For a commercial

you may want to look for products from companies such as IXIA.

Subject: Testing Bandwidth performance



What are some tools to test bandwidth perfomance?  I've used iperf, but are
there other tools or ways to generate traffic for testing purposes to see a
links maximum capacity?  Especially greater than a 100mb.
