Thanks for your reply, I looked at Netpref and that even I used for measuring thruput in case of TCP. I felt that instead of writing my own reliable application over UDP I would use some standard mesaurement tool. In Netperf they have a option called "UDP_RR" UDP Request/Reply, will this take care of loss? I feel that there must be some tool which I am not aware of.
