Measure Throughput on Tunnels

[s-pirrello]

Hello,

Is it possible to measure the throughput or bandwidth utilization on tunnels setup on a Pix 525? We're considering in upgrading our WAN connection to bring in the other site but need to know how much the tunnels are using individually. Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks,

Stefano

You could use TTCP !

TTCP is a benchmarking tool for determining TCP and UDP performance between two systems. It can also be used as a network pipe to transfer data between two systems.
