iperf3 run script for OPNsense

This script will quickly run an iperf3 test on your client and with your OPNsense firewall. The results will be shown on your terminal.

• This script has only been tested with Linux, should theoretically work with MacOS.
• If your on Windows, WSL should work.

Usage

=====

1. Modify the username and ip address, values of all the scripts to match the values for your environment.
   • (optional) Make an alias in your .bashrc or .zshrc to quickly call this script
2. After modifying the values, you only need to run the ./opnsense_iperf3_runner.sh script, it calls on the other 2 scripts.
