An interactive python shell to test the network using external commands as well as some python libs for network performance
None - this is pure Python3, thanks to the likes of the tabulate project and the icmplib project.
The app is interactive, and upon launch, creates a new logfile. It must be run as root.
The logfile is located in /network-testing/$YEAR/$MONTH/$DAY
and the file is named according to data in Config.py
, using the timestamp for the file name.
The log directory and files are 777 owned by root.
Once in, you have a shell where you can run pings, traceroutes, speedtests with logging to disk and some analysis.
This application has two ways to interface with it. There is an interactive shell called TestShell, and an execuble-like mode for one-off testing via the module "Flamegrid"
NOTE: This requires Sudo privileges on Linux/MacOS, but not Windows. Both of the following work to run the shell:
sudo python3 -m TestShell
sudo TestShell
Welcome to the Network Tester Interactive v2.2.1 app to test your network!
Type ? to list commands.
For questions, please contact the administrator who granted you this access.
