NAME
netserver - a network performance benchmark server
SYNOPSIS
netserver [-4] [-6] [-d] [-h] [-L name,family] [-p portnum] [-v verbosity] [-V]
DESCRIPTION
Netserver listens for connections from a netperf benchmark, and responds accordingly. It can either be run from inetd or as a standalone 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.
