WCCP Redirect Questions / Issues

[dtran]

Hello Everyone,

I've got WCCP configured on a Cisco 4451 router for traffic redirection. And for some reason ICMP, Traceroute and Syslog traffic is not getting redirected and everything else is working normally. Is it normal for WCCP not to redirect ICMP, Traceroute and Syslog traffic ? or I am missing something in my WCCP config ? My ACL for WCCP is basically said allow all traffic.

Thanks everyone in advance !!! I appreciate any inputs / suggestions !!!

WCCP v2 features and supported by cisco and IEEE standard.

The WCCP Version 2 feature provides several enhancements and features to the WCCP protocol, including:

• The ability of multiple routers to service a content engine cluster.
• Redirection of traffic other than HTTP (TCP port 80 traffic), including a variety of UDP and TCP traffic.
• Optional authentication that enables you to control which routers and content engines become part of the service group using passwords and the HMAC MD5 standard.
• A check on packets that determines which requests have been returned from the content engine unserviced.
• Load adjustments for individual content engines to provide an effective use of the available resources while helping to ensure high quality of service (QoS) to the clients.
