iperf3 Project News =================== 2015-01-09: iperf-3.0.11 released ---------------------------------- | URL: http://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/iperf-3.0.11.tar.gz | SHA256: ``e01db5be6f47f67c987463095fe4f5b8b9ff891fb92c39104d042ad8fde97f6e iperf-3.0.11.tar.gz`` This maintenance release adds a -1 flag to make the iperf3 execute a single test and exit, needed for an upcoming bwctl release. A few other bugs are also fixed. 2014-12-16: iperf-3.0.10 released ---------------------------------- | URL: http://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/iperf-3.0.10.tar.gz | SHA256: ``a113442967cf0981b0b2d538be7c88903b2fb0f87b0d281384e41b462e33059d iperf-3.0.10.tar.gz`` This maintenance release fixes building on MacOS X Yosemite, as well as making the -w option work correctly with UDP tests. 2014-10-14: iperf-3.0.9 released --------------------------------- | URL: http://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/iperf-3.0.9.tar.gz | SHA256: ``40249a2b30d26b937350b969bcb19f88e1beb356f886ed31422b554bac692459 iperf-3.0.9.tar.gz`` This maintenance release fixes an issue for a situation in which attempting a UDP test with pathologically large (and illegal) packet sizes could put the iperf3 server in a state where it would stop accepting connections from clients, thus causing the clients to crash when interrupted. 2014-09-30: iperf-3.0.8 released --------------------------------- | URL: http://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/iperf-3.0.8.tar.gz | SHA256: ``81b8d91159862896c57f9b90a006e8b5dc22bd94175d97bd0db50b0ae2c1a78e iperf-3.0.8.tar.gz`` This maintenance release is functionally identical to 3.0.7. It incorporates updated license verbage and a minor compilation fix. 2014-08-28: iperf-3.0.7 released --------------------------------- | URL: http://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/iperf-3.0.7.tar.gz | SHA256: ``49510e886f9e876cd73dcd80414bfb8c49b147c82125585e09c2a6e92369d3f2 iperf-3.0.7.tar.gz`` This maintenance release fixes several minor bugs. Of particular note: * A bug that caused some problems with bwctl / perfSONAR has been fixed. * A bug that made it possible to disrupt existing, running tests has been fixed. 2014-07-28: iperf-3.0.6 released --------------------------------- | URL: http://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/iperf-3.0.6.tar.gz | SHA256: ``3c5909c9b286b6503ffa141a94cfc588915d6e67f2aa732b08df0af73e21938 iperf-3.0.6.tar.gz`` This maintenance release includes the following bug fixes: * Several problems with the -B option have been fixed. Also, API calls have been added to libiperf to extend this functionality to API clients. * Some portability fixes for OpenBSD and Solaris have been merged from the mainline. As always, more details can be found in the ``RELEASE_NOTES`` file in the source distribution. Older News ---------- 2014-06-16: Project documentation on GitHub Pages .................................................. iperf3 project documentation can now be found at: | URL: http://software.es.net/iperf/ This is a GitHub Pages site. In an ongoing series of steps, content will be migrated from the iperf3 wiki to GitHub Pages. 2014-06-16: iperf-3.0.5 released ................................. | URL: http://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/iperf-3.0.5.tar.gz | SHA256: ``e1e1989985b17a4c03b0fa207004ad164b137e37ab0682fecbf5e93bcaa920a6 iperf-3.0.5.tar.gz`` This is the third maintenance release of iperf 3, with few more enhancements and bug fixes. Highlights: * A timing issue which caused measurement intervals to be wrong with TCP tests on lossy networks has been fixed. * It is now possible to get (most of) the server-side output at the client by using the ``--get-server-output`` flag. * A number of bugs with ``--json`` output have been fixed. A more extensive list of changes can always be found in the ``RELEASE_NOTES`` file in the source distribution. Note: An iperf-3.0.4 release was planned and tagged, but not officially released. 2014-06-10: New iperf3 download site ..................................... iperf3 downloads are now hosted on a new server at ESnet: | URL: http://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/ Going forward, new releases will be made available in this directory. Older releases will, at least for now, continue to also be available at the previous location. 2014-03-26: iperf-3.0.3 released ................................. | URL: http://stats.es.net/software/iperf-3.0.3.tar.gz | SHA256: ``79daf3e5e5c933b2fc4843d6d21c98d741fe39b33ac05bd7a11c50d321a2f59d iperf-3.0.3.tar.gz`` This is the second maintenance release of iperf 3.0, containing a few bug fixes and enhancements, notably: * The structure of the JSON output is more consistent between the cases of one stream and multiple streams. * The example programs once again build correctly. * A possible buffer overflow related to error output has been fixed. (This is not believed to be exploitable.) More information on changes can be found in the ``RELEASE_NOTES`` file in the source distribution. 2014-03-10: iperf-3.0.2 released ................................. | URL: http://stats.es.net/software/iperf-3.0.2.tar.gz | SHA256: ``3c379360bf40e6ac91dfc508cb43fefafb4739c651d9a8d905a30ec99095b282 iperf-3.0.2.tar.gz`` **Note:** Due to a mistake in the release process, the distribution tarball referred to above is actually not compressed, despite its ``.tar.gz`` extension. Instead it is an uncompressed tar archive. The file checksum is correct, as are the file contents. This version is a maintenance release that fixes a number of bugs, many reported by users, adds a few minor enhancements, and tracks the migration of the iperf3 project to GitHub. Of particular interest: * Build / runtime fixes for CentOS 5, MacOS 10.9, and FreeBSD. * TCP snd_cwnd output on Linux in the default output format. * libiperf is now built as both a shared and static library; by default, the iperf3 binary links to the shared library. More information on changes can be found in the ``RELEASE_NOTES`` file in the source distribution. 2014-02-28: iperf migrated to GitHub ..................................... The new project page can be found at: https://github.com/esnet/iperf 2014-01-10: iperf-3.0.1 released ................................. | URL: http://stats.es.net/software/iperf-3.0.1.tar.gz | SHA256: ``32b419ef634dd7670328c3cecc158babf7d706bd4b3d248cf95965528a20e614 iperf-3.0.1.tar.gz`` During development, there were various distributions of the source code unofficially released carrying a 3.0.0 version number. Because of the possiblity for confusion, this first public release of iperf3 was numbered 3.0.1.
