Netperf in FreeBSD?

[linuxunix]

May I know if netperf package is available in freebsd or not?
Also, if netserver utility is present or not?

I easily found the netperf via:

$ cd /usr/ports
$ make search key=netperf

but how can i start netserver service ?I couldn't see that in FreeBSD.

The mighty hanbook covers it all

I did read that page but how to add service for netserver.
Dont we have default service available once netperf gets installed as seen in linux?

Does it have rc script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/?
If no, you will have to write it yourself.

Common usage of netserver is to just start it from the cmdline whenever you need it.
Another alternative is to have netserver running from inetd(8)(), though inetd seems to have gone out of fashion more or less.
