Defaults:
  * random destination UDP ports are used unless --port is specified
  * random-sized packets are sent unless --size or --bandwidth is specified
  * flood is continuous unless --time is specified
  * flood is sent at line speed unless --bandwidth or --delay is specified

Usage guidelines:
  --size parameter is ignored if both the --bandwidth and the --delay 
    parameters are specified.

  Packet size is set to 256 bytes if the --bandwidth parameter is used 
    without the --size parameter

  The specified packet size is the size of the IP datagram (including IP and
  UDP headers). Interface packet sizes might vary due to layer-2 encapsulation.

Warnings and Disclaimers:
  Flooding third-party hosts or networks is commonly considered a criminal activity.
  Flooding your own hosts or networks is usually a bad idea
  Higher-performace flooding solutions should be used for stress/performance tests
  Use primarily in lab environments for QoS tests
