Test TCP (TTCP)
Benchmarking Tool
for
Measuring TCP and UDP Performance
Background
Test TCP (TTCP) - The Original BSD Tool
Test TCP (TTCP) is a command-line sockets-based benchmarking tool
for measuring TCP and UDP performance between two systems. It was originally developed for
the BSD operating system starting in 1984. The original TTCP and sources are in the public
domain, and copies are available from many anonymous FTP sites.
You can read "The
Story pf the TTCP Program" in the words of Mike Muuss,
one of the original TTCP program authors.
Since source code to the original TTCP sockets program has been available on
the Internet for many years there are a lot of implementations available on
various operating systems. Click here for
a page that list a few Windows-related TTCP implementations.
