Add something like this on your mrtg.cfg

Options[whatever_the_name]: bits
ShortLegend[whatever_the_name]: b/s

Yes, once mrtg generated all the images (eg, the yearly graph is updated
daily, monthly graph -> every 2 hours, weekly graph -> every 30 minutes,
daily graph -> every 5 minutes).
Or you could delete all the images, run mrtg. mrtg will generate all
the images again.
