WCCP and ASA CPU Load

[ilya_s]

Hello!

We plan to use WCCP with a Cisco ASA 5510. How can increase the CPU load of Cisco ASA 5510 with HTTP traffic about  100Mbps?

Current CPU load about 30-40%.

100Mbps of real world traffic will increase the ASA CPU.

Though it should be able to handle it. http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6120/prod_models_comparison.html

Make sure you don't inspect traffic you don't need to inspect and not log too deep (more than level notifications) and the ASA should be able to handle it.

Monitor the CPU to see how it looks though.

I hope it helps.
