NAME
flowgrindd - network performance measurement tool daemonSYNOPSIS
flowgrindd -h|-v|-d|-w DIR/flowgrindd [options]
DESCRIPTION
flowgrindd is the daemon for the flowgrind distributed network performance measurement tool. Using the flowgrind controller, tests can be setup between hosts running flowgrindd, the flowgrind daemon.Flowgrind performs extensive TCP tests. On systems running the Linux kernel flowgrind collects and reports the TCP metrics returned by the TCP_INFO socket option, such as the size of the congestion window or the RTT.
The flowgrind daemon needs to be running on every host that is supposed to be endpoint of a flow.
