Only 'web-cache' gets redirected - no other service groups...

I have a Netcache configured for transparent caching for port 80 and 443. The Netcahce IP is 164.72.49.253. We have a 6509, sup720 IOS. 12.2(17a)SX3, configured to redirect web-cache and 1 to the Netcache. Here is the config:

ip wccp web-cache

ip wccp 1

The 6509 interface that controls the subnet the netcache is on is configured thus:

interface Vlan1

ip address 164.72.49.131 255.255.255.128

ip wccp web-cache redirect out

ip wccp 1 redirect out

We have a PC on another subnet connected to the 6509 that we are using to test the config, and we can only get port 80 to be redirected to the Netchace. HTTPS port 443 never gets redirected. Service group 1 is configed on the Netcache as tcp port 443.

Here is the output of 'sh ip wccp':

What would cause the router to no redirect service-group 1 packets to the Netcache?

HI,

the IOS has some predefined service for WCCP. Give it a try using ip wccp 70 and define service group 70 for https on your netcache.

cheers,

Joerg

The sup720 does not support wccp yet.

The commands are available and some functionalities may work but currently the sup720 does not support wccp.

Hi Gilles,

I missed that one :( But would it be possible to use a self customized wccp group in the way he described it or do i have to use the predefinied ones. I had trouble with selfdefined groups using ftp on a normal router. After i found out, that a certain wccp group is predefined it worked properly.

Cheers,

Joerg

FTP is a special case I would say due to its nature of a separate data/control channels.

I used self defined groups to intercept various tcp port and it always worked.

Another thing to check is if the router supports selfdefined groups - ie: the 3550 only supports webcache - nothing else.

Regards,

Gilles.

Thanks for info.

Do you know when WCCP will be supported on the Sup720?
