| <h2>Binary Distributions<a class="headerlink" href="#binary-distributions" title="Link to this heading">¶</a></h2> |
| <p>Note that ESnet does not distribute binary packages of iperf3. All of |
| the packages listed in this section are provided by third parties, who |
| are solely responsible for their contents. This is an incomplete list |
| of binary packages for various operating systems and distributions:</p> |
| <ul class="simple"> |
| <li><p>FreeBSD: via the FreeBSD Ports Collection with <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sudo</span> <span class="pre">pkg</span> <span class="pre">install</span> |
| <span class="pre">benchmarks/iperf3</span></code>.</p></li> |
| <li><p>Fedora / RedHat Linux / CentOS / Rocky: <a class="reference external" href="https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/iperf3/iperf3/">iperf3</a> and |
| <a class="reference external" href="https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/iperf3/iperf3-devel/">iperf3-devel</a> in Fedora |
| 19 and 20 and in Fedora EPEL 5, 6, and 7. iperf3 is included as a |
| part of RedHat Enterprise Linux 7.4 and later (as well as CentOS 7.4 |
| and later, and all versions of Rocky Linux), and can generally be |
| installed with <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">yum</span> <span class="pre">install</span> <span class="pre">iperf3</span></code>.</p></li> |
| <li><p>Ubuntu: <a class="reference external" href="https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iperf3">iperf3</a>, |
| is available in Trusty (backports), and as a part of the main |
| release in Vivid and newer. It can generally be installed with |
| <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sudo</span> <span class="pre">apt-get</span> <span class="pre">install</span> <span class="pre">iperf3</span></code>.</p></li> |
| <li><p>macOS: via HomeBrew with <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">brew</span> <span class="pre">install</span> <span class="pre">iperf3</span></code> or MacPorts with |
| <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sudo</span> <span class="pre">port</span> <span class="pre">install</span> <span class="pre">iperf3</span></code>.</p></li> |
| <li><p>Windows: iperf3 binaries for Windows (built with <a class="reference external" href="https://www.cygwin.com/">Cygwin</a>) can be found in a variety of |
| locations, including <a class="reference external" href="https://files.budman.pw/">https://files.budman.pw/</a> |
| (<a class="reference external" href="https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1234695-iperf/">discussion thread</a>).</p></li> |
| <li><p>Android: iperf3 binaries for Android can be found in several |
| locations, including <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/davidBar-On/android-iperf3/">https://github.com/davidBar-On/android-iperf3/</a>.</p></li> |

| <section id="source-distributions"> |
| <h2>Source Distributions<a class="headerlink" href="#source-distributions" title="Link to this heading">¶</a></h2> |
| <p>Source distributions of iperf are available as compressed (gzip) |
| tarballs at:</p> |
| <p><a class="reference external" href="https://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/">https://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/</a></p> |
| <p><strong>Note:</strong> Due to a software packaging error, the 3.0.2 release |
| tarball was not compressed, even though its filename had a <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">.tar.gz</span></code> |
| suffix.</p> |
| <p><strong>Note:</strong> GitHub, which currently hosts the iperf3 project, supports |
| a “Releases” feature, which can automatically generate <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">.zip</span></code> or <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">.tar.gz</span></code> |
| archives, on demand, from tags in the iperf3 source tree. These tags are |
| created during the release engineering process to mark the exact |
| version of files making up a release.</p> |
| <p>In theory, the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">.tar.gz</span></code> files produced by GitHub contain the same |
| contents as what are in the official tarballs, note that the tarballs |
| themselves will be different due to internal timestamps or other |
| metadata. Therefore these files will <em>not</em> match the published SHA256 |
| checksums and no guarantees can be made about the integrity of the |
| files. The authors of iperf3 always recommend downloading source |
| distributions from the the directory above (or a mirror site), and |
| verifying the SHA256 checksums before using them for any purpose, to |
| ensure the files have not been tampered with.</p> |

| <section id="source-code-repository"> |
| <h2>Source Code Repository<a class="headerlink" href="#source-code-repository" title="Link to this heading">¶</a></h2> |
| <p>The iperf3 project is hosted on GitHub at:</p> |
| <p><a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/esnet/iperf">https://github.com/esnet/iperf</a></p> |
| <p>The iperf3 source code repository can be checked out directly from |
| GitHub using:</p> |
| <p><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">git</span> <span class="pre">clone</span> <span class="pre">https://github.com/esnet/iperf.git</span></code></p> |
| <p>Primary development for iperf3 takes place on CentOS 7 Linux, FreeBSD 11, |
| and macOS 10.12. At this time, these are the only officially supported |
| platforms, however there have been some reports of success with |
| NetBSD, OpenBSD, Windows, Solaris, Android, and iOS.</p> |
