net/pchar - The NetBSD Packages Collection

Tool for measuring Internet path characteristics

pchar is a reimplementation of the pathchar utility, written by Van Jacobson.
Both programs attempt to characterize the bandwidth, latency, and loss of
links along an end-to-end path through the Internet. pchar works in both
IPv4 and IPv6 networks.
