    Iperf usage question

    Hi All,
    Is there a way to use iperf client to use a specific source port?

    for example

    ./iperf -c <server IP> -B <local IP>-u -p 40000 will bind to server at port 40000. But is there anyway to tell the client to use a fixed source port say 30000 and bind to server at 40000?

    can iperf do this?

    If not, is there any other tool that can do this?

    Thanks a lot for all your help.

    read iperf man page, I believe it's not possible. Try MGEN: http : // pf.itd.nrl.navy.mil / mgen / mgen.html or http : // downloads.pf.itd.nrl.navy.mil / mgen
