Network Monitor Graph units are M(Bytes)ps or M(bits)ps?

[dnoriega]

I can't find any information about the real units used to display the Graph of the Network Traffic Monitor.

Currently one of my servers shows 7M, and I want to know if that is taking 7% or 70% of my 100Mbps ethernet infrastructure.

Node network graph is showing Megabytes/s and you can see with eg. "sar -n DEV 1 --iface=enp1s0" (sysstat package) maybe with interface also :

Just to make sure, in that graph, basically you are using a 2.5 Gbit port at its full capacity?

And then I am using 7MB/s or 56 Mbps, approx 60% of my available bandwidth.

Thanks a lot.

No, that's a nfs mount with 10Gb from a raidz1 3x2TB with iso files copied to /dev/null just for made some demo traffic.
