NAME
gnunet-transport - measure and control the transport subsystem
SYNOPSIS
gnunet-transport [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
gnunet-transport is a tool to access various functions of GNUnet's transport subsystem from the command-line. Most of these are not
expected to be useful for end-users. gnunet-transport can be used to evaluate the performance of the transports, force a peer to connect
to another peer (if possible). Other functions should be added in the near future.
-b, --benchmark
measure how fast we are receiving data (from all connections). On exit, the data rate will be reported. Runs until aborted with
CTRL-C.
-c FILENAME, --config=FILENAME
configuration file to use
-C PEER, --connect=PEER
peer to connect to (and to use for sending if used in conjunction with -s)
-h, --help
print help page
-i, --information
print information about our current connections (once)
-m, --monitor
print information about our current connections (continuously)
-L LOGLEVEL, --loglevel=LOGLEVEL
Change the loglevel. Possible values for LOGLEVEL are ERROR, WARNING, INFO and DEBUG.
-s, --send
transmit (dummy) traffic as quickly as possible to the peer specified with the -C option. The rate will still be limited by the
quota(s) determined by the peers (ATS subsystem). Will run until CTRL-C is pressed or until the connection to the other peer is
disrupted.
-t, --test
test transport configuration. With this flag, the tool will check if each of the configured transport plugins has a working
address. Plugins that do not have a listen port configured will be ignored. The test is performed with the help of an external
server (by default running on gnunet.org) which tries to contact the local machine. The test can only work if the local GNUnet peer
is not yet running.
-v, --version
print the version number
-V, --verbose
be verbose
