This version of iperf enables reverse, client-initiated TCP iperf tests, which
are useful if your client is behind a NAT. This is the code for iperf-2.0.5
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/iperf/) with an update for the patch available
from Lucas Nussbaum (http://www.loria.fr/~lnussbau/).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Usage:

*Client behind a NAT*

On the server (Global IP Address):

  iperf -s --reverse

NAT'd client:

  iperf -c _server_ --reverse

*Both client and server have global IP address*

Server:

  iperf -s

Client:

  iperf -c _server_

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is Iperf v2.0.0, a tool for measuring Internet bandwidth performance.
See the doc directory for more documentation.
Briefly:

  ./configure      -- configure for your machine
  make             -- compile Iperf
  make install     -- install Iperf, if desired

  iperf -s               (on machine "foo.bar.edu")
  iperf -c foo.bar.edu   (on some other machine)
  iperf -h               (for help screen)
  iperf -v               (for version information)
