netserver(1) a network performance benchmark server

SYNOPSIS

netserver [-4] [-6] [-d] [-h] [-L name,family] [-p portnum] [-v verbosity] [-V]

DESCRIPTION

Netserver listens for connections from a netperf benchmark, and responds accordingly. It can either be run from inetd or as a standalone daemon (with the -p flag). If run from inetd the -p option should not be used.

OPTIONS

-4
Use AF_INET (aka IPv4) addressing for the control and possibly data connections.
-6
Use AF_INET6 (aka IPv6) addressing for the control and possibly data connections.
-d
Increase the quantity of debugging output displayed during a test (possibly at the expense of performance).
-h

-p portnum
Listen on the specified port. This is used when running as a standalone daemon.
