Solved: L2 egress method

Patrik S · ‎11-14-2013

Hello everyone

Looking at upgrading a setup to WAAS 5.X with Nexus 7k as WCCP router.

Since the 7k does not support the GRE egress method to preserve path affinity, does the L2 egress method solve this issue?

I'm thinking in the sense where optimized traffic is returned to the redirecting router rather than the default gateway.

Thanks

Regards

Patrik

Your understanding is correct.

Also in WAAS 5.x this is the default configuration l2-redirect, l2-return, egress-method l2, mask assignment.
