3.3 Test Application

Linux has an extensive suite of networking test applications such as netperf and iperf3. In addition, plget [11] is a tool that utilizes the precision time protocol (PTP) standardized in IEEE 1588, a hardware capability found in all TSN-capable hardware, to capture timestamps of Ethernet frame arrival and transmit times at the MII interface.
