Hello everyone.

I was asked to set up some schedules to run iperf on our network, sending the results to a server outside the LAN, already configured. I'll be using two notebooks for that.
The person told me very briefly how I should set it up. And I'm not sure how I should do it on Windows Scheduler. The tests need to run for about 7 days.
Here is what he told (typed) me. Exactly.

notebook one:
iperf3 -c xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
and the second one:
iperf3 -c xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - u 60
(UDP 60 seconds)
port default 5201
and than alll task at scheduller should be repeated for 5/10 minutes
both task need has 1-2 minutes differences for start configuration

How would you guys interprete that?
I mean... how should I set up the triggers on scheduler, for both notebooks?

If anyone could schedule a task and take a screenshot for me, showing what I need to do on both notebooks, would be awesome.

Thanx.
 
I did it. But I was afraid iperf would run more than once and mess things up, depending on what settings I used.
But it's up and running there. Already received a confirmation email.
Thank you. Maybe.
