Description: Reports real-time traffic management metrics and application performance data from Packeteer WAN optimization appliances.

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is PACKETEER-RTM-MIB?

PACKETEER-RTM-MIB is a Packeteer-proprietary SNMP module that reports real-time traffic management (RTM) metrics and application performance data from Packeteer WAN optimization/traffic-shaping appliances. It belongs to the performance/traffic-monitoring category of MIBs, focused on visibility into how network bandwidth and applications are behaving across a managed WAN link. Its role in status monitoring is centered on software/network performance rather than physical sensors: it lets administrators track real-time traffic throughput, per-application performance, and the effectiveness of traffic-shaping/QoS policies applied by the Packeteer device, which reveals congestion, policy misconfiguration, or degraded application performance across the WAN. No sample objects were captured from the source, so exact object names cannot be confirmed, though as a device-specific MIB it likely builds on standard interface/traffic MIBs (such as IF-MIB) for baseline counters while adding Packeteer's proprietary shaping/classification metrics. It is typically deployed by enterprises using Packeteer (later Blue Coat/PacketShaper) appliances to manage and report on WAN link utilization and application-level quality of service. Engineers can download the PACKETEER-RTM-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in PACKETEER-RTM-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Monitoring Examples

No sample objects were captured for this MIB in the available metadata, so specific object/table names cannot be confirmed from source. Based on its stated purpose, an administrator would expect to poll real-time throughput and per-application performance metrics to detect WAN link congestion or a specific application consuming disproportionate bandwidth, verified against traffic-shaping policy effectiveness. This scenario should be treated as inferred from the module's description rather than confirmed object-level detail.

OID symbolic	OID numeric	Type	Access	Description
psClassResponseTimes	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7
classRTMConfigTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.1		not-accessible	A table of parameters configuring the Response Time Management feature for each class. *** NOTE that these parameters are used to compute the other data in this MIB, and thus changing any of them causes a reset of most RTM data. Only the histograms (classTotalDelayTable, classServerDelayTable, and classNetworkDelayTable ) are unaffected.
classRTMConfigEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.1.1		not-accessible	An entry containing the configurable Response Time Management parameters for a given class
INT classTotalDelayThreshold	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.1.1.2	INTEGER	read-only	The time in milliseconds which constitutes the acceptable limit of aggregate delay for this class.
INT classServiceLevelThreshold	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.1.1.6	INTEGER	read-only	The percentage of transactions required NOT to be over threshold. If more than this percentage of transactions in an interval are over threshold, then this Interval is counted in the classIntervalsAboveTotalDelayThreshold variable. The default is 100.
classTotalDelayTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.2		not-accessible	A list of traffic class aggregate delay entries. The table is indexed by two variables: the classIndex from classTable, and the lower limit of the bucket, in milliseconds. The histogram for any given class 'i' may thus be retrieved via GetNext of classTotalDelayBucketCount.i.0
classTotalDelayEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.2.1		not-accessible	An entry containing the count of observed network transactions in a given bucket.
INT classTotalDelayBucketLimit	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.2.1.1	INTEGER	read-only	The lower limit, in milliseconds, of this bucket. NOTE: although the bucket limits are given for each class, this does NOT imply that they are different, and in fact they are the same for all classes. This is done to facilitate GetNext'ing through the table; for example the count of the next bucket larger than 1 second for class 'i' can be obtained by GetNext classTotalDelayBucketCount.i.1000. The complete histogram for class i, with the limits for each bucket, can be obtained by GetNext classTotalDelayBucketCount.i
CTR classTotalDelayBucketCount	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.2.1.2	Counter	read-only	The count of transactions whose aggregate delay fell in this bucket. Transactions are defined according to classTransactionDefinition.
classNetworkDelayTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.3		not-accessible	A list of traffic class network delay entries. The table is indexed by two variables: the classIndex from classTable, and the lower limit of the bucket, in milliseconds. The histogram for any given class 'i' may thus be retrieved via GetNext of classNetworkDelayBucketCount.i.0
classNetworkDelayEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.3.1		not-accessible	An entry containing the count of observed network delay transactions in a given bucket. Transactions are defined according to classTransactionDefinition.

NOTE: although the bucket limits are given for each class, this does NOT imply that they are different, and in fact they are the same for all classes. This is done to facilitate GetNext'ing through the table; for example the count of the next bucket larger than 1 second for class 'i' can be obtained by GetNext classNetworkDelayBucketCount.i.1000. The complete histogram for class i, with the limits for each bucket, can be obtained by GetNext classNetworkDelayBucketCount.i
CTR classNetworkDelayBucketCount	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.3.1.2	Counter	read-only	The count of observed network transactions for the class in this bucket. Transactions are defined according to classTransactionDefinition.
classServerDelayTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.4		not-accessible	A list of traffic class Server delay entries. The table is indexed by two variables: the classIndex from classTable, and the lower limit of the bucket, in milliseconds. The histogram for any given class 'i' may thus be retrieved via GetNext of classServerDelayBucketCount.i.0
classServerDelayEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.4.1		not-accessible	An entry containing the count of observed network transactions in a given bucket.

CTR classServerDelayBucketCount	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.4.1.2	Counter	read-only	The count of observed network transactions for the class in this bucket. Transactions are defined according to classTransactionDefinition.
classRTMTable	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.5		not-accessible	A table of readonly Response Time Management information about this class. All non-histogram information about RTM is kept in this table.
classRTMEntry	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.5.1		not-accessible	An entry containing readonly Response Time Management information about this class.
GAU classTotalDelayMedian	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.5.1.1	Gauge	read-only	The median aggregate delay for this class, in milliseconds. Medians are calculated by an approximate method using the above histogram, whose error is at most 1/2 of the time interval spanned by the bucket into which the exact median falls.
GAU classTotalDelayAverage	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.5.1.2	Gauge	read-only	The average aggregate delay for this class, in milliseconds. Use the average in conjunction with the median, since averages can be distorted by a few very large samples.
CTR classTransactionsAboveTotalDelayThreshold	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.5.1.3	Counter	read-only	The number of network transactions whose aggregate delay was greater than the value of classTotalDelayThreshold. Transactions are defined according to classTransactionDefinition.
CTR classIntervalsAboveServiceLevelThreshold	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.5.1.4	Counter	read-only	The number of intervals over the aggregate delay threshold, defined as those intervals with 'classIntervalServiceLevelThreshold'% or fewer transactions with aggregate delay less than 'classTotalDelayThreshold'.
DAT classLastIntervalAboveServiceLevelThreshold	1.3.6.1.4.1.2334.2.1.7.5.1.5	DateAndTime	read-only	The time at which the last interval ended which failed the service level threshold, in other words, the interval in which classIntervalServiceLevelThreshold% of the total transactions, or fewer, had total response times less than classTotalDelayThreshold.
