Im using Dstat on Centos to monitor incoming network, and it only shows numbers, not the B/Mb that I have seen on other peoples Dstats, how do I make it show the units? Example of current Dstat:

[root@vps ~]# dstat -n --socket --integer
-net/total- ------sockets------
 recv  send|tot tcp udp raw frg
   0     0 |192  23   2   0 117
  18M  592k|192  23   2   0 136
  18M  598k|192  23   2   0 116
  19M  601k|192  23   2   0 132
  19M  596k|192  23   2   0 141
  20M  599k|192  23   2   0 117
  20M  594k|192  23   2   0 118

Is it not suposed to show units in the sockets row?

That's because the 'sockets' stats are counters, not units. They're counting the sockets, not network traffic. Units would likely be metric, so if you get over 1024 you might see a 1K in there.
