between two updates of this data source before the value of the
data source is assumed to be I<*UNKNOWN*>.
-I<min> and I<max> are optional entries defining the expected range of
-the data supplied by this data source. If I<min> and/or I<max> are
-defined, any value outside the defined range will be regarded as
-I<*UNKNOWN*>. If you do not know or care about min and max, set them
-to U for unknown. Note that min and max always refer to the processed
-values of the DS. For a traffic-B<COUNTER> type DS this would be the
-maximum and minimum data-rate expected from the device.
