Query on Transparent Proxy with WCCP

Hi All,

I have a query (an issue rather) with IronPort WSA transparent proxy with WCCP redirect.

WCCP is configured on our internet ASA firewall inside interface to the WSA. In the WCCP redirect access list we are not restricting any ports (it is 'any'). And the transparent proxy is working fine for all the normal HTTP and HTTPS traffic.

The issue is that when we try to access siites like http://abcdefg:8180 through the transparent proxy, it is unable to get the page. It gives and error that the connection has timed out. I used HttpWatch to monitor this traffic and it shows "NS_ERROR_NET_TIMEOUT".

We have an explicit forward proxy as well, and when we try accessing the same site through that, it works well.

My query is, will the transparent proxy with WCCP redirect support only HTTP and HTTPS. Can't we get other ports also working through that. If it is not, I wonder what is the use of configuring transparent proxy.

IronPort Model: S670

Version: 7.1.4-053

Request your assistance.

Regards,

Faiz
