Use the iPerf service
Your TX54 device includes an iPerf3 server that you can use to test the performance of your network.
iPerf3 is a command-line tool that measures the maximum network throughput an interface can
handle. This is useful when diagnosing network speed issues, to determine, for example, whether a
cellular connection is providing expected throughput.
The TX54 implementation of iPerf3 supports testing with both TCP and UDP.
Note Using iPerf clients that are at a version earlier than iPerf3 to connect to the TX54 device's iPerf3
server may result in unpredictable results. As a result, Digi recommends using an iPerf client at
version 3 or newer to connect to the TX54 device's iPerf3 server.

Additional configuration Items

The port that the TX54 device's iPerf server will use to listen for incoming connections.
n
The access control list for the iPerf server.
When the iPerf server is enabled, the TX54 device will automatically configure its firewall rules
to allow incoming connections on the configured listening port. You can restrict access by
configuring the access control list for the iPerf server.
