iperf3

Because iperf3 has a client and server component, the netutils charm can operate as both. Setting the iperf3 configuration value to True will start iperf3 in server mode, running as a daemon.

$ juju deploy cs:~nfv/netutils client
$ juju deploy cs:~nfv/netutils server iperf3=True
$ juju run-action client/0 iperf host=<ip of server> [...]

Scale out Usage

With great scalability comes great power, but please don't use this to DDoS anyone without their permission.
