Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of communication network performance testing, in particular to a method for testing network throughput based on a file transfer protocol. Background technique
[0002] Usually, in order to locate network faults and optimize the network, it is necessary to test the performance of the network. The network performance indicators mainly include throughput, response time, delay, jitter, and packet loss. The throughput refers to the maximum amount of data that passes through the network per unit of time without packet loss, and is measured in bits or bytes per second. Throughput is a comprehensive reflection of network performance.
[0003] Throughput is closely related to network protocols, because different network protocols have different encapsulation formats, checksums, and sending and receiving processing of data packets. FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a standard for file transfer in the network, and is an importan...
