Hi: <br />
<br />
I want to try an experiment. &nbsp;I want to put TWO PCs on a 10/100Mbps SWITCH. <br />
Each PC will have a 10/100 NIC. &nbsp;Both PCs will be running Windows XP OS (SP2). <br />
The switch is a full-duplex auto-sensing 10/100 SoHo switch.<br />
<br />
I want to 'transfer' several LARGE files from the one PC to the other PC. &nbsp;I want<br />
to measure the time it takes the file(s) to go from one PC to the other PC when<br />
the NICs and switch are set at 10Mbps, then 100Mbps, and finally 100Mbps in full-duplex.<br />
<br />
I have all the equipment necessary to do this, but I have no software to do the different measurements.<br />
Can you please tell me the name of a 'simple' program I could install on either one or both PCs that<br />
will do what it is that I am trying to do?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance!<br />
<br />

Software is any set of instructions that directs a computer to perform specific tasks or operations. Computer software consists of programs, libraries and related non-executable data (such as documentation). Computer software is non-tangible, contrasted with computer hardware, which is the physical component of computers. Software written in a machine language is known as "machine code". However, in practice, software is usually written in high-level programming languages than machine language. High-level languages are translated into machine language using a compiler or interpreter or a combination of the two.

Software

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.
