Synology Snelheidstest is een test die uitgevoerd wordt tussen twee Synology NAS-servers. Voor de test wordt gebruik gemaakt van de FTP service op één van de  Synology NAS-servers. Op deze server staat een bestand wat gedownload wordt vanaf de andere server via het Curl commando.

Synology Snelheidstest voorbereiding:

turn on ssh on the Synology NAS, Control Panel, Terminal & SNMP, enable SSH service.

root Login using ssh:

ssh user@servernameoripaddress

sudo -i

To download a file from a ftp server anonymous (example):

curl -O ftp://ftp.xs4all.nl/pub/test/1gb.bin

To download a file from a Synology ftp server with authentication(example):

curl  -O ftp://<servername>/<shared folder>/<name file> --user '<Synology User>:<password>'

or

curl -n --netrc-file <file name, or path to file name>  -O ftp://<servername>/<shared folder>/<name file>

-n, --netrc   Must read .netrc for user name and password

     --netrc-file FILE  Specify FILE for netrc

file name contents:

machine <name Synology NAS-server>

login <ftp user on Synology NAS>

password <password ftp user on Synology NAS>

To upload a file to a ftp server (example):

make sure you have a 1GB file. Not in the root folder or delete afterwards.  

curl -T 1gb.bin ftp://speedtest.tele2.net/upload/

Speed in MByte/s(MB/s or kByte/s)
In case M multiple by 10 for megabit per second(Mbps)
In case k divide by 1000 for MByte/s(MB/s)
In case k divide by 100 for megabit per second(Mbps)

schedule download speed task:

create owner executable file with following contents:

cd /volume1/homes/user/
curl -O ftp://ftp.xs4all.nl/pub/test/1gb.bin
rm /volume1/homes/admin/1gb.bin

Control panel, Task Scheduler, create task, run command

/volume1/homes/user/<name file>.sh
