iPerf -> Where is the Luci GUI?

Hello,

I have Xiaomi Mi 4A Gigabit Edition WiFi Router and I have installed the latest official built of OpenWRT as mentioned for this router.

It is working properly.

I have installed an extra package iPerf via the software section under Luci web interface. However, it doesn't show up in luci.

Iperf package has no GUI for Luci?

Would have been very useful to have that GUI.

Thanks.

iperf(1), iperf3(1) are cli tools, there is no luci interface for either of them.

Hello,

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I figured that out. It is CLI only. That is why I posted this topic in feedback section. As it would be nice to have a GUI for this tool.

Thanks.

Sourcing/sinking traffic on a router is a different load from normal routing/firewalling duties. So keep that in mind when running capacity/throughput tests to/from your router...

I had the same need, to run it via WebGUI. So I wrote a simple javascript based luci app: https://github.com/Gevatter-Tod/luci-app-iperf3
Hope it is helpful.
