Description
Describe the feature request
Currently, the value set via --bandwidth is not written to the perfdata.
This makes it a bit more annoying to use in third-party tools like Grafana, because the configured bandwidth value is not available there. There is a workaround by showing the percentage value in Grafana with scale(), but that feels a bit unflexible and puts the logic into the dashboard instead of the check output.
It would be nice if the bandwidth value from --bandwidth could also be added to the perfdata.
