| Building iperf3 |
| =============== |
| |
| Building iperf3, as with most tools of this type, is a fairly |
| straightforward operation. The instructions in this section assume |
| that the source distribution has already been unpacked. |
| |
| Prerequisites |
| ------------- |
| |
| iperf3 requires few (if any) dependencies on common operating |
| systems. The only known prerequisites are listed here. |
| |
| Building |
| -------- |
| |
| In many cases, iperf3 can be built and installed as follows: |
| |
| ``./configure && make && make install`` |
| |
| In some cases, configuration might fail. If this happens, it might |
| help to run ``./bootstrap.sh`` first from the top-level directory. |
| |
| By default, the ``libiperf`` library is built in both shared and |
| static forms. Either can be suppressed by using the |
| ``--disabled-shared`` or ``--disable-static`` configure-time options. |
