WCCP on ASA for FTP over HTTP

[Igor Rodriguez]

Hello,

We have a WSA appliance that we have in explicit mode and want to configure as transparent. The protocols we cache and analyze with WSA are HTTP, HTTPS, native FTP and FTP over HTTP.

Is there a service number on WCCP for FTP over HTTP protocol? Or it is included within HTTP?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Best regards,

Igor

Igor,

The service number 60 (ftp-native service) only applies  to transparent redirection of FTP native requests and does not apply to  FTP-over-HTTP requests.

On the other hand; the Content Engine listens for redirected HTTP  requests on the standard HTTP port (default port 80). To enable the  Content Engine to listen for WCCP-intercepted HTTP traffic on ports  other than the default port, configure the custom-web-cache service (98 and 99) or a  user-defined WCCP service (services 90 to 97).

I hope this helps.

Regards,

Juan Lombana
