1 tcpstream - a simple TCP streaming test tool
2 --------------------------------------------
4 tcpstream generates TCP connections between a 'client' and a 'server'. The
5 client writes a pseudo-random byte stream using varying write sizes. The
6 server then reads the stream and uses the same generator to confirm that the
7 data is correct. To run tcpstream, select a seed value (should be the same
8 for the client and server), and a port number (also the same for client and
9 server). Typical use might be:
11 Run the server on port 8080 and use a seed of 100:
13 tcpstream server 8080 100
15 Now run the client on a second machine with the server's IP, port 8080, and
18 tcpstream client 192.168.10.10 8080 100
