SYNOPSISnetserver [-4] [-6] [-d] [-h] [-L name,family] [-p portnum] [-v ver‐
bosity] [-V]
DESCRIPTION
Netserver listens for connections from a netperf benchmark, and
responds accordingly. It can either be run from inetd or as a stand‐
alone daemon (with the -p flag). If run from inetd the -p option should
not be used.
OPTIONS
-4 Use AF_INET (aka IPv4) addressing for the control and possibly
data connections.
-6 Use AF_INET6 (aka IPv6) addressing for the control and possibly
data connections.
-d Increase the quantity of debugging output displayed during a
test (possibly at the expense of performance).
-h Display a usage string, and exit.
-L name,family
Set the local name and/or address family for the socket used for
the control connection.
-p portnum
Listen on the specified port. This is used when running as a
standalone daemon.
-v verbosity
Set the verbosity level for the test.
-V Display the netperf version and exit.
