Website room bandwidth test command: TraceRT and Ping

                  Many server webmasters want to know the bandwidth quality of their own computer room. We can use a few common windows tools to test the bandwidth quality of your computer room.

Through the previous article "Unveiled IDC Merchants - How is the price difference between the computer rooms so big?" We understand that the difference in bandwidth quality directly leads to the difference in the price of the machine room. So how can we test the true bandwidth quality? Today, we use the most common windows tools to test the bandwidth quality of your computer room.

1, TraceRT

In the previous article, we mentioned that the quality of the bandwidth directly connected to the backbone network is much better than that of the network connected to the province. When the main customers of my website are from Guangzhou and Shanghai, if my computer room is directly connected to the backbone network, then when the customer visits, the network flow is “Guangzhou node-> backbone network node”, which can be realized by one hop; if I The computer room is connected to the bandwidth of Hebei Langfang. When the customer visits, the network flow is “Guangzhou node-> backbone network node->Beijing regional node->Hebei province node-> Langfang node”, which requires four hops. In order to achieve, the speed must be much slower than the backbone network access method. TraceRT is used to detect the "hop count" and response time from the end customer to the server room where your server is located.

Method: Log in to your server and enter in the Windows Dos interface (Start Menu - Run - Type "cmd"): "tracert -d [IP across the country]"

Example 1: Log in to a third-line server room server 211.166.XXX.XXX and test the following conditions respectively

(Thanks to the data center for providing the backbone network for the third-line computer room for testing)

tracert - d 202.106.196.1 Beijing Unicom connection situation 7 hops (computer room - China Unicom backbone - Beijing Unicom)

tracert -d 122.193.0.10 Jiangsu Unicom connection situation 10 hops (computer room - China Unicom backbone - Jiangsu Unicom)

tracert -d 221.207.59.131 Qinghai Unicom connection situation 9 hops (computer room - China Unicom backbone - Qinghai Unicom)

tracert -d 220.181.22.226 Beijing Telecom connection situation 10 hops (computer room - telecommunications backbone - Beijing Telecom)

tracert -d 219.137.167.204 Guangzhou Telecom connection situation 11 hops (computer room - telecommunications backbone - Guangzhou Telecom)

tracert -d 61.132.74.48 Jiangsu Telecom connection situation 13 hops (computer room - telecommunications backbone -Jiangsu Telecom)

tracert -d 211.139.145.100 Guangdong mobile connection situation 12 hops (computer room - China Unicom backbone - mobile backbone - Guangzhou Mobile )

tracert -d 202.112.0.36 Education Network Connection 5 hops (computer room - education network backbone)

Example 2: Log in to a single-line computer room server 123.116.XXX.XXX, the same test The following situation

tracert -d 202.106.196.1 Beijing Unicom connection situation 8 hops (computer room - Beijing Unicom)

tracert -d 122.193.0.10 Jiangsu Unicom connection situation 12 hops (computer room - Beijing Unicom - China Unicom backbone-Jiangsu Unicom)

tracert -d 221.207.59.131 Qinghai Unicom connection situation 11 hops (computer room-Beijing Unicom-China Unicom-Qinghai Unicom)

tracert -d 220.181.22.226 Beijing Telecom Connection situation 12 hops (computer room - Beijing Unicom - China Unicom backbone - telecommunications backbone - Beijing Telecom)

tracert -d 219.137.167.204 Guangzhou Telecom connection situation 13 hops (computer room - Beijing Unicom - China Unicom backbone - telecommunications backbone - Guangzhou Telecom)

tracert -d 61.132.74.48 Jiangsu Telecom connection situation 15 hops (computer room - Beijing Unicom - China Unicom backbone - telecommunications backbone - Jiangsu Telecom)

tracert -d 211.139.145.100 Guangdong Mobile Connection Situation 13 hop (computer room - Beijing Unicom - China Unicom backbone - mobile backbone - Guangzhou Mobile)

tracert -d 202.112.0.36 Feeding network connection situation 14 hops (computer room - Beijing Unicom - China Unicom backbone - education network backbone)

Through the above two examples, it is not difficult to see that the first three-line computer room hops far less than the second-line single room . That is to say, if the bandwidth is the same, the speed of the three-line computer room in the first place of the user in all parts of the country is definitely faster than the single-line computer room in the second example.

2, Ping

Ping is a relatively simple test method and one of the most familiar methods for testing bandwidth stability and connection speed. We also logged into the server, tested the following addresses, and checked the stability and connection speed of connecting to our servers across the country.

Method: Log in to your server and enter in the Windows Dos interface (Start Menu - Run - Enter "cmd"): "ping [IP across the country] -n 500" (to send 500 Packets, the test is relatively accurate, need more accurate data can increase the number of transmissions)

Example 1: Log in to a third-line computer room server 211.166.XXX.XXX, respectively test the following situation

(Thanks to the Data Center for providing the backbone network for the bandwidth of the backbone network for testing)

ping 202.106.196.1 Beijing Unicom connection speed and packet loss rate average 1ms/packet is 2

ping 122.193.0.10 Jiangsu Unicom connection speed and packet loss rate average 32ms /packet loss is 1

ping 221.207.59.131 Qinghai Unicom connection speed and packet loss rate average 31ms /packet loss is 2

ping 220.181.22.226 Beijing Telecom connection speed and packet loss rate average 1ms /packet loss is 1

ping 219.137.167.204 Guangzhou Telecom connection speed and packet loss rate average 36ms /packet loss is 2

ping 61.132.74.48 Jiangsu Telecom connection speed and packet loss rate average 25ms /packet loss is 1

ping 211.139.145.100 Guangdong mobile connection speed and packet loss rate average 45ms /packet loss For 2

ping 202.112.0.36 Education network connection speed and packet loss rate average 1ms/lost packet is 0

Example 2: Log in to a single-line server room server 123.116.XXX.XXX, same Test the following situation

ping 202.106.196.1 Test to Beijing Unicom connection speed and packet loss rate average 3ms /packet loss is 0

ping 122.193.0.10 Test to Jiangsu Unicom connection speed and packet loss rate Average 36ms/packet is 1

ping 221.207.59.131 Test to Qinghai Unicom connection speed and packet loss rate average 33ms/packet is 0

ping 220.181.22.226 Test to Beijing Telecom connection speed And packet loss rate average 123ms /packet loss is 3

ping 219.137.167.204 Test to Guangzhou Telecom connection speed and packet loss rate average 162ms /packet loss is 0

ping 61.132.74.48 Test to Jiangsu Telecom connection speed and packet loss rate average 86ms /packet loss is 1

ping 211.139.145.100 Test to Guangdong mobile connection speed and packet loss rate average 132ms /packet loss is 5

ping 202.112 .0.36 Test to education network connection speed and packet loss rate average 126ms /packet loss is 0

Through the above two examples, you can test the service simply and intuitively The connection speed between the device and the customers all over the country, the connection speed of the first-line three-line computer room is faster than that of the single-line computer room in the second example, especially when connecting to the telecommunications and education network. In a word, the faster the average connection response speed, the smaller the packet loss rate, and the better the bandwidth quality.

You can use these two methods to simply test the quality of the network bandwidth of your computer room connected to all parts of the country, and publish it for the benefit of netizens.
