If you have a Cisco at both ends with the correct IOS, you can run a ttcp test to try and stress the DS3. ___________________________________________________________ Wayne Gustavus, CCIE #7426 Operations Engineering Verizon Internet Services ___________________________________________________________ "How many people can read hex if only you and dead people can read hex?" -----Original Message----- From: owner-nanog@merit.edu [mailto:owner-nanog@merit.edu] On Behalf Of Bubba Parker Sent: Friday, August 20, 2004 7:47 PM To: nanog@merit.edu Subject: bandwidth test Recently my DS3 has been turned up to 8 megabits. How can I test to see if I can actually achieve that throughput? Online bandwidth test sites are only good for up to 5mb at the most, and my upstream doesn't have a method to test that. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. -- Bubba Parker sysadmin@citynetwireless.net CityNet LLC http://www.citynetinfo.com/
