perf-3.0.11.tar.gz``
This maintenance release adds a -1 flag to make the iperf3 execute a
single test and exit, needed for an upcoming bwctl release. A few
other bugs are also fixed.
2014-12-16: iperf-3.0.10 released

perf-3.0.10.tar.gz``
This maintenance release fixes building on MacOS X Yosemite, as well
as making the -w option work correctly with UDP tests.
2014-10-14: iperf-3.0.9 released
--------------------------------| URL: http://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/iperf-3.0.9.tar.gz

perf-3.0.9.tar.gz``
This maintenance release fixes an issue for a situation in which
attempting a UDP test with pathologically large (and illegal) packet
sizes could put the iperf3 server in a state where it would stop
accepting connections from clients, thus causing the clients to crash
when interrupted.
2014-09-30: iperf-3.0.8 released
--------------------------------| URL: http://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/iperf-3.0.8.tar.gz

perf-3.0.8.tar.gz``
This maintenance release is functionally identical to 3.0.7. It
incorporates updated license verbage and a minor compilation fix.
2014-08-28: iperf-3.0.7 released

perf-3.0.7.tar.gz``
This maintenance release fixes several minor bugs. Of particular
note:
* A bug that caused some problems with bwctl / perfSONAR has been

fixed.
* A bug that made it possible to disrupt existing, running tests has
been fixed.
2014-07-28: iperf-3.0.6 released
--------------------------------| URL: http://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/iperf-3.0.6.tar.gz

erf-3.0.6.tar.gz``
This maintenance release includes the following bug fixes:
* Several problems with the -B option have been fixed. Also, API
calls have been added to libiperf to extend this functionality to
API clients.
* Some portability fixes for OpenBSD and Solaris have been merged from
the mainline.
As always, more details can be found in the ``RELEASE_NOTES`` file in
the source distribution.

---------2014-06-16: Project documentation on GitHub Pages
..................................................
iperf3 project documentation can now be found at:
| URL: http://software.es.net/iperf/
This is a GitHub Pages site. In an ongoing series of steps, content
will be migrated from the iperf3 wiki to GitHub Pages.
2014-06-16: iperf-3.0.5 released

perf-3.0.5.tar.gz``
This is the third maintenance release of iperf 3, with few more
enhancements and bug fixes. Highlights:
* A timing issue which caused measurement intervals to be wrong with
TCP tests on lossy networks has been fixed.
* It is now possible to get (most of) the server-side output at
the client by using the ``--get-server-output`` flag.
* A number of bugs with ``--json`` output have been fixed.
A more extensive list of changes can always be found in the
``RELEASE_NOTES`` file in the source distribution.
Note: An iperf-3.0.4 release was planned and tagged, but not
officially released.

2014-06-10: New iperf3 download site

.....................................
iperf3 downloads are now hosted on a new server at ESnet:
| URL: http://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/
Going forward, new releases will be made available in this directory.
Older releases will, at least for now, continue to also be available
at the previous location.
2014-03-26: iperf-3.0.3 released
.................................
| URL: http://stats.es.net/software/iperf-3.0.3.tar.gz

perf-3.0.3.tar.gz``
This is the second maintenance release of iperf 3.0, containing a few bug fixes
and enhancements, notably:
* The structure of the JSON output is more consistent between the
cases of one stream and multiple streams.
* The example programs once again build correctly.
* A possible buffer overflow related to error output has been fixed.
(This is not believed to be exploitable.)
More information on changes can be found in the ``RELEASE_NOTES``
file in the source distribution.
2014-03-10: iperf-3.0.2 released
.................................
| URL: http://stats.es.net/software/iperf-3.0.2.tar.gz

perf-3.0.2.tar.gz``
**Note:** Due to a mistake in the release process, the distribution tarball ref
erred to above is actually not compressed, despite its ``.tar.gz`` extension. I
nstead it is an uncompressed tar archive. The file checksum is correct, as are
the file contents.
This version is a maintenance release that
fixes a number of bugs, many reported by users, adds a few minor
enhancements, and tracks the migration of the iperf3 project to
GitHub. Of particular interest:
* Build / runtime fixes for CentOS 5, MacOS 10.9, and FreeBSD.
* TCP snd_cwnd output on Linux in the default output format.
* libiperf is now built as both a shared and static library; by
default, the iperf3 binary links to the shared library.
More information on changes can be found in the ``RELEASE_NOTES``
file in the source distribution.

2014-01-10: iperf-3.0.1 released

erf-3.0.1.tar.gz``
During development, there were various distributions of the source
code unofficially released carrying a 3.0.0 version number. Because
of the possiblity for confusion, this first public release of iperf3
was numbered 3.0.1.
