Hi,
I want to apply new policy on the WAVE-574 to bypass the optimization for the certain traffic flows (traffic from 192.168.1.0/24 to 192.168.2.0/24 not to be optimized). I've prepared the configuration according to preconfigured policies which looks as following:
policy-engine application
name Pass
!
classifier Pass_Classifier
match src ip 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 dst ip 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.255
exit
!
map basic
name Pass classifier Pass_Classifier action pass-through
!
I would like to apply this using CLI, not CM GUI.
Does this configuration looks OK ? Unfortunately I dont have any lab equipment and I can't test it on production network.
After the configuration, is there anything else that needs to be done on branch WAVE to sync up with the CM (so I can see the new policy using CM GUI) or it will do it automatically ?
Also, at what place is this policy going to be applied (1st or last, or can I configure it to be 1st via CLI) ?
Many thanks!

I can't comment on the CLI since i have never modified the policy configuration via the CLI. However, can I ask why you don't
want to do this via the GUI. The GUI will provide a simple graphical way to modify the policy to a single WAE/WAVE or to a group of them.
Thanks.

Sure. Web GUI is user friendly, nice and so on. But for me it is much more comfortable just to copy/paste the configuration using CLI. I've spent hours and hours on routers and switches CLI and now I would like to continue using it with WAAS. I am just the old fashion CLI guy .

Hi,
I did a little research and noticed that the map command is used for the ordering process.
also note the warning in the command reference guide.
Note We strongly recommend that you use the WAAS Central Manager GUI to centrally configure application policies for your WAEs. For more information, see the Cisco Wide Area Application Services Configuration Guide.
Also the modification from the CLI are sent to the CM upon the next polling cycle. "show cms info" The policy for this device will then become a locally administered policy. Typically policies should be done via the all device group to simplify the configuration configuration and modifications.
Thanks.

Thanks a lot Eric for your response!
Just one more question. What command needs to be applied to send the new configuration from branch WAVE to CM without waiting on polling timer? Is it "cms enable" or "cms config-sync" ??
Many thanks!

Yes, you can use cms config-sync.

Thansk Zach!
I've also found out that Cisco offers couple of remote labs focused on configuring WAAS devices in Partner Education Connection section. I've registered for the one called "Cisco Wide Area Application Services: Configuring WAAS Inline lab". But unfortunately when I want start this lab it keeps telling me that "No labs are available at this time". Can you please tell me when this lab will be available or point me to other place where I can ask this question?

I just tried it as well and got the same response about no labs being available.

Here is the link to the help page on the PEC system. I would suggest openning up a case with them. I will do the same.
Thanks
