Installing SIPp 3.3 under CYGWIN on win10
SIPp is a free SIP traffic generating tool for Linux.
http://sipp.sourceforge.net/
SIPp user manual says you can install SIPp under CYGWIN on windows. However I am not experienced with compiling applications to run under Linux and need help getting SIPp up and running under CYGWIN on a windows10 machine.
I have successfully installed CGYWIN and included the following packages (all successfully)
gcc-core
gcc-g++
gcc
libncurses
make
After the CGYWIN install, I put C:/cygwin64/bin in the win10 systems’ environment variable PATH – so far all ok and CGYWIN seems to be working fine.
In addition, the SIPp install instructions state:
Warning
SIPp compiles under CYGWIN on Windows, provided that you installed IPv6 extension for CYGWIN (http://win6.jp/Cygwin/), as well as libncurses and (optionally OpenSSL and WinPcap). SCTP is not currently supported.
QUESTION 1 - Do you know what this is??? IPv6 extension for CYGWIN http://win6.jp/Cygwin/
is it a CYGWIN package, and entire install version??
What/how do I need to do to check/install?
QUESTION 2 – Nothing happens when I try to run “autoreconf -ivf” ...but this might have to do with Question 1 not being addressed yet.

$ autoreconf -ivf
-bash: autoreconf: command not found

Installing SIPp
• On Linux, SIPp is provided in the form of source code. You will need to compile SIPp to actually use it.
• Pre-requisites to compile SIPp are :
o C++ Compiler <==check
o curses or ncurses library <== check
o For TLS support: OpenSSL >= 0.9.8 <== not needed
o For pcap play support: libpcap and libnet <== not needed
o For SCTP support: lksctp-tools <== not needed
o For distributed pauses: Gnu Scientific Libraries <== not needed
• You have four options to compile SIPp: <==== I will install using 1st option, simplest way without TLS,SCTP or PCAP
o Without TLS (Transport Layer Security), SCTP or PCAP support: This is the recommended setup if you don't need to handle SCTP, TLS or PCAP. In this case, there are no dependencies to install before building SIPp. It is straightforward:
# tar -xvzf sipp-xxx.tar
# cd sipp
# autoreconf -ivf
# ./configure
# make
NOT USED:
o With TLS support, you must have installed OpenSSL library (>=0.9.8) (which may come with your system). Building SIPp consists only in adding the "--with-openssl" option to the configure command:
# tar -xvzf sipp-xxx.tar.gz
# cd sipp
# autoreconf -ivf
# ./configure --with-openssl
# make
o With PCAP play support:
# tar -xvzf sipp-xxx.tar.gz
# cd sipp
# autoreconf -ivf
# ./configure --with-pcap
# make
o With SCTP support:
# tar -xvzf sipp-xxx.tar.gz
# cd sipp
# autoreconf -ivf
# ./configure --with-sctp
# make
o You can also combine these various options, e.g.::
# tar -xvzf sipp-xxx.tar.gz
# cd sipp
# autoreconf -ivf
# ./configure --with-sctp --with-pcap --with-openssl
# make

Sorry for delay getting back. Your suggestions helped me solve the issue. Installed Make 1.14 and wrapper and also autoconf and automake from Dev category. Also removed C:\cygwin64\bin from PATH and restarted cygwin. With these additional packages installed SIPp 3.3 compiled.
