The Open Broadband-User Datagram Protocol Speed Test (OB-UDPST) project produces an open source implementation of a tool to perform IP layer capacity metrics and measurement.
Building on the success of the publication of version 8.1.0, the OB-UDPST project team is working with a network operator as they evaluate a large-scale rollout driven by their multi-stream & multi-gigabit testing needs.
Work has begun on version 8.2.0 that in addition to some minor fixes and enhancements, will now include multi-key authentication. This will allow each individual server instance to better support a variety of client instances across different service offerings and device types. For large deployments, this capability is expected to significantly improve key management and maintenance.
The OB-UDPST project team continues work on Issue 4 of TR-471 to include the new multi-flow capabilities in the information model. Work to add new parameters to the TR-181 Data Model to support Issue 4 of TR-471 continues.
