Please allow the user to override this parameters with env variable
and/or with the command line.

Always use '-b 0'. Will work with both TCP and UDP and is usually more
efficient than forcing a specific speed.

It's probably better use '--one-off' and run the command in background.

You should wait for the listener to be available with wait_port_listen()

Also you can consider extending the existing GenerateTraffic() class in

tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/lib/py/load.py

Instead of having a single test with all proto and speeds, what about
using a tests list, each of them using a given protocol and speed, so
that the user see more fine grain results?
