Sign upIPerf3 binaries for Windows, Linux, MacOS X. Install Iperf 3.1.3 via the command line: Packages are manually installed via the dpkg command (Debian Package Management System). Dpkg is the backend to commands like apt-get and aptitude, which in turn are the backend for GUI install apps like the Software Center and Synaptic. If you are not acquainted with Iperf – it is one of the most flexible tools to run bandwidth test, although somewhat limited by being command line utility. JPerf comes equipped with Iperf and its only goal is to take command line out of setup picture.

I am attempting to get iperf3 to run as a windows service. I see notes in documentation about the -D command and the -R command for installing the service and for removing it. I am able to run -D and it runs in the background of Windows but not as a Windows service under services.msc. I have tested in Windows 2008R2, Windows 2012R2, and Windows 10. Is it possible to run as a Windows Service? If so, what command should I run? Here is what I am running: iperf3.exe -s -D I tried with the latest build of iperf 2. Same behavior. |

iperf3 is really designed for, and only supported on, UNIX-like operating systems. Some people have made Windows variants, you should try contacting one of them, or perhaps someone will see this issue comment. |

@bmah888 can you remove the reference to running iperf as a Windows service in the user docs? It's confusing since it's unsupported and doesn't work anymore. https://iperf.fr/iperf-doc.php#service |

Hrm, thanks for the suggestion. I don't control the content on iperf.fr (and that section seems to apply to iperf2, whereas I maintain iperf3), but let me see if I can get your message to the right people. |

Requirements
Installation
IssuesWe noticed that some times, iperf3 in service mode, stop working and only service restart helps. As a simple workaround we created a simple batch file and scheduled it to run each day: Restart-iperf3-service.cmd Related documents

nssm is a much better option than srvany from the resource kit. |
