One of them is from the user\u2019s point of view and the other one of engineers. Usually users have some basic understandings of data transmission principle, while network engineers manage all the underlying \u00a0processes. For a user transmission parameters do not matter. The main things the user wants to know are whether the data transmission is fast and reliable enough or not. In contrary a network engineer or adminitrator should be well-informed with all detailed characteristics. To increase the quality and reliability of data transmission a lot of engineers\u2019 groups develop protocols to improve data transmission. And they need some special tools for analysis and evaluation of the data transmission parameters. Only a deep understanding of the traffic behaviour can give the ability to clarify the characteristics of a new protocol on a network, to debug any appeared issues and present high-quality (well-engineered network) product for end-user.<br \/>With such an idea in mind LTest had been developed. LTest is a free Linux tool for analysis of network quality metrics based on the patented Improved Cristian algorithm with linear time interpolation. It shows how fast a network is. LTest tool visualizes data of traffic profile at a very fine grain \u2013 down to hundreds of nanoseconds. This feature makes work with the program easy and quick. In few minutes engineer can look through the whole picture of the transmission data in the path and immediately look deeply to the most interesting parts. To understand which concrete benefits user directly gets from the LTest usage let\u2019s first of all answer the main question: What is the LTest tool?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\"><a href=\"https:\/\/fila-lab.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Drawing.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"  wp-image-66 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/fila-lab.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Drawing.png\" alt=\"Drawing\" width=\"271\" height=\"271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fila-lab.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Drawing.png 209w, https:\/\/fila-lab.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Drawing-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 271px) 100vw, 271px\" \/><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span lang=\"en-GB\"><i><b>LTest<\/b> is:<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Access to the behaviour of each packet on the network.
