Thus, we introduce background traffic flows using
IPerf to bring down the effective bandwith so that it is similar to the real world values.
The setup involved a Raspberry Pi connected in point-to-point mode directly to a laptop and the
Iperf tools where used to perform the tests on the connected network.

Iperf Throughput Demomeasures TCP and UDP network throughput is measured using Express Logic's NetX Duo IPv4/IPv6 dual-TCP/IP stack and the industry- standard
Iperf network throughput benchmark.
More exactly, we have used the
iperf tool for measuring bandwidth simultaneous between several virtual machines running in the hypervisor layer and the physical host running the management layer.
As a preliminary test, in order to avoid unexpected network limitations, the available bandwidth between the two networks was measured using
IPERF (https://code .google.com/p/iperf/).
