FWIW the expectation is that the test should be able to run even on systems / boards with a single interface. So the control traffic (communicating with the traffic generator) will run over the same interface as the test. 1% error is unachievable. I'd only check the lower bound, and use some sanity value for the upper bound (2^30 ?) if at all
