Update the Release License.
Remove the assembly code from PBProbe and solve the program freeze problem. <New parameters> -s: run as sender, ex: '-s RECEIVER_IP' -d: run as receiver, ex: '-d SENDER_IP' -p: the size of packet (default: 1500), ex: '-p 1000' means using 1000 bytes as a packet -c: the interval of probing traffic, ex: '-c 100' means constant interval 100 ms -r: the rate to probe the link capacity, ex: '-r 1' means using 1 Mbps to probe -k: the length of bulk (default: 10), ex: '-k 100' means a bulk contains 100 packets -u: the utilization of link capacity (default: 0.01), ex: '-u 0.01' means using 1% of link capacity to probe -n: the number of probing bulks (default: 10), ex: '-n 200' means using 200 bulks to probe -v: show verbose log -b: show debug info
Use assembly code to capture the Time from Intel CPU. <Limit> You have to run this software on Linux boxes with Intel CPUs. Note: You just can use one of '-c', '-r' and '-u' option at a time.
