WCCP over NX5K

Rene Melendez Cabrera — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 00:53:51 GMT

Hello everybody

I have a question, the NX5K can support redirection to WAAS Appliances with wccp, can anybody show me a link where I see this information and if its possible the configuration too.

I found this link, but it´s to NX7K

Regards,

I don't believe the Nexus 5000 supports WCCP. Which link gives you the impression that Nexus 5000 supports WCCP?

Regards,

thanks for you answer jeye,

I have not found any document that mentions the NX5K supports WCCP, in fact that is the question.

Can the NX5K supports WCCP?

Thanks again.

The N5k does not support wccp. The N7k does support wccp.

Thanks

Here is a link to the Nexus 7k support for wccp

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/datacenter/sw/4_2/nx-os/unicast/configuration/guide/wccp.html

Nexus 5k - data sheet - nothing listed as a feature

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/switches/ps9441/ps9670/data_sheet_c78-461802.html

documentation for N5k

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps9670/products_installation_and_configuration_guides_list.html

however since the N5k is not L3 - wccp support cant be available - wccp sits on L3 interface.

Thanks

Eric
