[SOLVED] API netin and netout values

[SkyZoThreaD]

Hi there !

I Hope I'm asking in the right place... I'm using the api to monitor my PVE's with a homemade service.
I'm trying to monitor network traffic and a found out that the API's doc is missing the fields I need
First, i'd like to know the node's global traffic by bridge but it looks like it's not possible...
So i thought, why not get the traffic for each VM. And indeed i have netin and netout when i get the qemus (/nodes/pveX/qemu) :

{"netin":51914344540,"maxmem":2147483648,"diskwrite":0,"mem":1371168324,"cpus":2,"maxdisk":21474836480,"status":"running","uptime":37544636,"cpu":0.0494867198005162,"diskread":0,"name":"censored","pid":1753786,"netout":336572932490,"vmid":105,"disk":0}

I dont understant the units there... 51914344540 or 336572932490 even if we speak of bits, it's way too big to be true... The NIC is a simple Gbe and the VM of this exemple is communicating through the NIC...
It seems the doc is missing these values btw

Can anyone enlight me ?

I think i got it...
It's the total amount of data that went through the lan...
So i have to store this value on each tick and do the substraction with the last value.
I did not want to store any value in the backend. I guess i'll have to :'(
