Here is the command we use to transmit: Udp-sender.exe --async --fec 8x8 --max-bitrate 1000m --mcast-rdv-addr 224.2.2.1 --mcast-data-addr 224.2.2.2 --interface <ipTx> --file myfile.dat The Receive command I use is: udp-receiver.exe --nosync --mcast-rdv-addr 224.2.2.1 --interface <ipRx> --f myfile.dat Overall, this works well but we have noticed that we can't get the network transmission speed up above 2-3 % (22Mbps) of the Gigabit Ethernet adapter's full capability (1000Mbps). We also know that we are not processor limited, nor are we disk speed limited or anything else we can think of. I know that the asynchronous mode application is for satellite transmissions that are understandably slower than what a file transfer purely over Gibabit Ethernet can do, so I am writing here to ask if any one has any thoughts or insights about what might be the core issue that keeps the process running so slow. Fwiw, the Data Security Diode is a Canary GT-10SD, but for tuning UDPCast, we bypass the diode with a direct cable connection between Tx and Rx machines. So the performance of the system I am describing is without the diode in place. Thanks in advance, folks. -Rich - Richard Evans, NASA GRC - Plum Brook Station ? http://www.linkedin.com/in/rkevans ???216.973.4398 ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Udpcast mailing list Udpcast(a)udpcast.linux.lu https://www.udpcast.linux.lu/mailman/listinfo/udpcast End of Udpcast Digest, Vol 123, Issue 1 *************************************** THIS MESSAGE IS FOR THE USE OF THE INTENDED RECIPIENT(S) ONLY AND MAY CONTAIN INFORMATION THAT IS PRIVILEGED, PROPRIETARY, CONFIDENTIAL, AND/OR EXEMPT FROM DISCLOSURE UNDER ANY RELEVANT PRIVACY LEGISLATION.
