Deployment Method:

NOTE

This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.

1. Enter Your Internal Repository Url

(this should look similar to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/)


2. Setup Your Environment

1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment

Please see the organizational deployment guide

2. Get the package into your environment

  • Open Source or Commercial:
    • Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
    • You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download

3. Copy Your Script

choco upgrade lan-speed-test.portable -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" [other options]

See options you can pass to upgrade.

See best practices for scripting.

Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.

If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:


choco upgrade lan-speed-test.portable -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" 
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE

Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
  Exit 0
}

Exit $exitCode

Screenshot of LAN Speed Test

After installing LAN Speed Test v4.0, it begins in (Lite) mode. LAN Speed Test (Lite) is fully functional with no time limits, etc. - only some of the more advanced features are disabled.

LAN Speed Test was designed from the ground up to be a simple but powerful tool for measuring file transfer, hard drive, USB Drive, and Local Area Network (LAN) speeds (wired and wireless). It does this by building a file in memory, then transfers it both ways (without effects of Windows/Mac file caching) while keeping track of the time, and then does the calculations for you. Simple concept and easy to use. You'll find that LAN Speed Test will quickly become one of your favorite network tools!

Some of LAN Speed Test 4.0 features include...

  • Test the speed of your Local Network by testing to/from network shared folders
  • Test the speed of your local drives (USB Drives, hard drives, etc.)

  • LAN Speed Test and LAN Speed Test (Lite) are now the same download
  • Packets up to 9 GB in size and up to 1000 packets *
  • Chunk size adjustable up to 1 MB (for advanced testers)
  • View results by Average, Maximum, and Minimum throughputs *
  • Progress bar and cancel button allowing user to cancel at any time
  • Ability to choose Network Interface Card for computers with multiple NICs
  • Ability to view each packet's results in a chart or by details *
  • Ability to view results as Gbps, Mbps, Kbps, GBps, MBps, or KBps *
  • Email results manually, automatically, or only when under a certain speed *
