Applied network tuning techniques:

On SUT: 
- Disable firewall
- Install canonical-certification-server and certification-tools package
- Start-iperf3 -a [IP] -n 20 - for both the ports

On iPerf Server:
- Disable the firewall
- Install certification-tools package
- Start-iperf3 -a [IP] -n 20 - for both the ports

Running Network Test Manually:

Followed the guide [a] to optimize the network ports and manually executed the 
test using the command [b], but the test still showed only 25% bandwidth. Even 
after increasing the threads to 30, the issue remained unchanged.
[a] - 
https://certification.canonical.com/docs/programmes/server/Self-Test_Guide/appendix-d-network-performance-tuning/
[b] - sudo /usr/lib/checkbox-provider-base/bin/network.py test -i ens1f1 \ -t 
iperf --iperf3 --scan-timeout 3600 --fail-threshold 80 \ 
--cpu-load-fail-threshold 90 --runtime 900 --num_runs 4 --num-threads 20 \ 
--target 172.24.124.1

Title:
  Failed to achieve more than 80% of the bandwidth on a 100Gbps
  connection during the network test

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Server Details:
  SUT - Cisco UCS X210c M7
  Ubuntu OS - 22.04/24.04
  VIC/Ethernet Adapter - Cisco UCS VIC 15231 / UCSX-ML-V5D200G

  he SUT is configured to run the network test using the canonical-
  certification-server package, with both the SUT and iPerf test servers
  set up as per the Test Suite Guide. Both servers are in a 100Gb switch
  environment. The issue occurs with achieving 80-90% bandwidth during
  the network stress test, and this is observed on both blade and rack
  servers.

  However, when testing with 10G and 25G network speeds, 80-90% bandwidth is 
successfully achieved. Below is a list of network cards on which the network 
tests passed.
  Cisco UCS VIC 15427
  Cisco UCS VIC 15420
