WCCP issues - fail open

[carl_townshend]

HI All

Can anyone tell me, when I use a acceleration device such as a Riverbed etc, when using WCCP, if the Riverbed fails.

What will happen?

Will the traffic just route as normal?

cheers

in the ACL last you can add below line, should able to route the traffic. ( depends on IOS)

access-list  XX permit ip any any  < in the end of should work for you. test and advise.

Yes, if the WCCP connection to the Caching device is not negotiated traffic will be routed normally.
