Is it "safe" to install iperf on 2.0.x?
-
The notes in the package manager suggest that it is for 1.2.x systems. Last I was aware it was a pretty simple binary, but I don't want to try to install it and break things.
Is iperf 2.x-safe or is there something "wrong" with the package that would counter-indicate usage on 2.x?
-
It's safe. It will install iperf freebsd8 package on your 2.x install.

<depends_on_package>iperf-2.0.4.tbz</depends_on_package>Given this, is there any reason that the package manager says "platform: 1.2.1"? Is that simply the minimum required pfSense version, or is the text in the packages page simply out of date?
-
It's the minimum required version.
