This is the AI code in routers2.cgi picking the wrong defaults.
Basically, it thinks that the target is an Interface, so it is converting to bits as a default. To stop this, you can do one of the following:
1) set the option in the routers2.conf so that bits is not a default
2) put the line
routers.cgi*Options[targetname]: bytes
in the .cfg file to set bytes mode
3) put the directive
routers.cgi*Mode[_]: general
in the .cfg file to make the default 'Mode' set to General. This chooses the other defaults -- if you dont set a mode, the AI code tries to pick one for you. Looks like it got it wrong this time
The best one to do is [3]. This means that it will assume nothing and basically disables most of the AI.
