Netperf is a benchmark that can be used to measure the performance of many different types of networking. It provides tests for both unidirectional throughput, and end-to-end latency. The environments currently measureable by netperf include:

o TCP and UDP via BSD Sockets o DLPI o UNIX Domain Sockets o Fore ATM API o HP HiPPI Link Level Access

Note that, though it is written and maintained by an HP employee (Rick Jones), Netperf is not an official HP product, and its use is in no way supported by HP.
