Ok next errors appeared during make process. iname "*." |xargs -n1 sed -i s'#iprintf#newprintf#g'īecause there were some func name “redifinition” in iperf_api.h iprintf function – name collisiosn with cygwin stdio.h definition. Ok, I decided to build some stable version so choosed 03eb163 commit this is 3.0.2 stable.įirst i made some function name replacement with:įind. I’v faced with some problems building iperf modern versions with current head commit. I’d like to share some expirience with some modern builds, mb it will help someone. I’m working on a separate post with some sample uses for iperf which should be completed in the near future. You can then run iperf directly from a command prompt. You will also need the following DLL files found in C:\cygwin\bin.Ĭopy the three DLL files and iperf.exe somewhere on your system that is in your path like c:\windows\system32 for example. If you installed Cygwin to the default location then iperf.exe will be located in C:\cygwin\usr\local\bin If you prefer to run iperf directly from a Windows command prompt or from another machine you can copy the iperf binary and the nessasary DLL files out of the cygwin environment.

You can run iperf directly from the Cygwin environment but you will have to specify the full path to the executable eg: /usr/local/bin/iperf. As you can see from the output below iperf.exe was copied to /usr/local/bin/

It shouldn’t take very long for the compile to finish.Īssuming your build completed without errors your going to want to run ‘make install’, to do this just type make install in the shell and hit enter. To get the compile process started just type make and hit enter. If everything went well your output should look something like this. Start the Cygwin shell from the start menu or the shortcut on your desktop.Įnter the directory where you extracted the iperf sourceĬonfigure the compiler (this might take a couple minutes) Next download and extract the iperf source code to C:\cygwin\iperf-2.0.5, 7-zip works well for extracting tar and gzip files in Windows. You should have a shortcut to Cygwin on your desktop when the installation is finished. You can use the default install options but when you reach the package selection screen click on ‘Devel’ so that ‘Default’ changes to ‘Install’, this will install all of the development tools you will need. To get started you will need to download and run setup. Although your Linux apps will have to be recompiled from source before they will run in the Cygwin environment.

You’ll need to copy iperf.exe and also the 3 cygwin DLL files included in the zip archive into your system in order for it to work.Ĭygwin is basically a Linux emulation environment for Windows.

You can download iperf version 2.0.5 for Windows that I compiled from source or continue reading if you want to learn how to compile your own copy. There are some older versions of iperf compiled for Windows available on the web but I couldn’t find a working link for iperf version 2.0.5 so I decided to try compiling it using Cygwin and it worked! It can generate TCP or UDP data streams for measuring network throughput and can also be used for testing network latency and jitter. Iperf is a very versatile open source program that can be used for network performance testing.
