brc test flent
brc test flent
Advanced network performance testing using Flent
Synopsis
This command runs a Flent test for a network
If the provided test file does not exist on the host, the command would just try using the existing test files supplied by Flent itself.
The special value gateway can be used as the destination IP address to use the gateway IP address of the UPF where the terminal is connected. This gateway IP is assumed to be the first IP address in the subnet of the terminal.
The option --namespace by default points to a Kubernetes namespace of the default Kubernetes context. You
may explicitly provide the context in the format of <context-name>.<namespace> to access the cluster using
particular kubectlcontext.
- Depending on your PDU session configuration, the terminal might accept IPv4 or IPv6 packages.
- Providing the
--plotflag will open the flent-gui to visualize the results, otherwise, the results will be downloaded as a compressed file to the current directory. - This command does not support bare-metal machines for the context.

# for a bare-metal machine named ayo and against its wwan0 interface
brc test flent --namespace bare.ayo wwan0 test.conf 1.2.3.4 --plot
