Mark,

You keep saying G as in Gigabit speeds, but are you sure you don’t mean M as in 
Megabit speeds?   Unless you have really good 5Gigabit upload service from your 
house...That said I'm going to assume you mean 100Mb connection, that’s not 
real fast....how much data are you talking about?

Subject: Re: z/OS network Speedtest

We have a customer that has to send us a large amount of data.  They claim that 
our ftp server is very slow.  I have had our network people tell me that we 
have 100GB pipe to our ftp server and if they say it's slow it is most likely 
their upload speed.  I have tested the upload speed to our ftp server from my 
home network but I am limited to 5G upload speed, which I easily reach during 
the upload.  So I was looking for something the customer to run to test their 
upload speed.
