Describe your dilemma in an e-mail to the editors at the best questions get answered in this column and garner the questioner with a nifty baseball-style cap. Netperf is a light-weight vendor neutral tool that will give you instantaneous network throughput between two points. When you find yourself in this situation and are looking to narrow down the cause of a problem, I have had a lot of success using the open source tool Netperf, which was developed by HP engineer Rick Jones. Now before all of you jump down my throat, I am not condoning this behavior! While blaming the other guy could be used as a diversion tactic, most administrators are often very confident in their abilities and, as a result, find in hard to believe that a performance problem exists on their network. This gives them a few hours (or sometimes even days!) to solve a problem while the customer verifies that it isn’t with another vendor. Many of my friends like to "blame the other guy" when they find themselves in a jam. Finger pointing has been a long standing tradition in IT, and I wasn’t sure that I wanted to do anything to upset that delicate balance. Jim: At first I was hesitant to answer your question. Is there an easy way to definitively identify a network bottleneck so that both the engineer and customer can be confident in the source of the problem? Just last week I was at a site and the customer was insistent that slow performance was related to a software bug in the product I was installing. When you suspect a performance problem is related to a network bottleneck, use this simple tool to verify your suspicions.Ĭhris: I have often found myself having to deal with customers with slow networks that believe their networks are fine.
