[8.900]Feature: Flowmonitor Bandwidth Units

$

Hi, this is the same behavior in v8.3 so I am going to ask for it as a feature. The bandwidth units used in flowmonitor are hard to understand. In the bandwidth usage now section B, KB, and MB actually stand for bits, kilobits and megabits. However in the total traffic section they are correctly used as KB for KiloBytes and MB for MegaBytes.

This becomes really confusing when applying QoS directly from flow monitor since all the traffic flow is measured in bits, kilobits or megabits.

Screenshot below shows my top bandwidth usage now as 88KB/s. This should be 88kb/s because 88KB/s=704kb/s and if you look at my interfaces totals, I am only using 106.7 kbit coming in.

Regards
Bill
