By default, the ants and utilization measure different things.
The visual ants will be triggered by the rate of packets going in and out of the interface. It only takes 10 pkts/second for the ants to appear. The utilization is computed using the total rate of bytes (not packets) relative to the speed of the interface. From looking at the status window for the interface in question, you should be able to determine if the utilization is being measured correctly. Please check the following:
- Incoming bytes/sec - Outgoing bytes/sec - Interface Speed

I think I need some help configuring IM to monitor the utilization of a port
on a managed switch. The switch is a Dell 3324, and I'd like to chart the
incoming and outgoing utilization. I've got the port specifically showing
on the map, and Intermapper shows the marching ants between the switch and
the port, but the statistics pop-up box shows all utilization at 0%.
