I'm considering purchasing hosting from a provider that says I will have a dedicated 10 Mbit connection with burst to 20 Mbit on a FreeBSD box I rebuilt to suit my needs.. The network is Multihomed with three other providers. However, I'm a skeptic. I went ahead and purchased for 1 month and now want to see if I am actually getting 10 Mbit uplink to the server. I'm looking at iperf to do this, but I also know taking ping/traceroute results from remote host to the server can calculate this, but I dont know the math. Would anyone using iperf guide me towards an example, or show me the math using ping/traceroute? Or, suggest running any other test? Thx XR
