Point to point testing with two CentOS clients

Hello!

I wanted to put this out there to see if anyone has setup anything similar!

I’m troubleshooting some network performance issues a very large WAN. I’ve done my usual tests but I haven’t found anything conclusive.

I’ve setup two CentOS Linux boxes as network probes one at a branch site and another at our data centre. I regularly run iperf to test performance but I’m really looking for something I could run constantly that wouldn’t take up bandwidth to troubleshoot connection issues.

Wondering if anyone had a similar setup could give me a few pointers of ways to approach this!

Looking forward to reading the responses thank you for your time!
