# 1.) Return critical if there's more than 10k PPS
# $ ./check_pps.sh -i eth0 -w 8000 -c 10000 -p
#
# 2.) Return critical if there's more than 1m BPS
# $ ./check_pps.sh -i eth0 -w 500000 -c 1000000 -b
#
# 2.) Return critical if we've reach 70% of the NIC's line-rate capacity
# $ ./check_pps.sh -i eth0 -w 50 -c 70 -r
