I just happened to end up with a CE-590 falling into my hands, so figured I'd try and learn a little about it. In my network here I have a PIX-515 firewall running the 8.x code base. On the Content Engine I loaded up the lastest ACNS 5.5.x code for it.
Looking at the various docs, it seems like almost a no-brainer to set this thing up to use WCCP, so off I went. I put in the configs on both the CE and PIX and it showed the GRE tunnel was up and happy. Still it doesn't seem to be caching pages from what I can see on the CE. I went to a webserver I control at a remote location, as according to the docs it will actually show the requesting IP as coming from the cache-engine, plus I would assume on successive page reloads it would get it from the CE, not keep asking the remote web-server. Which is not the case, funny though as if I told the CE I wanted HTTP auth to access things, it sure enforced that. On the CE I have the following in the config: ! http proxy incoming 80 ! wccp router-list 1 xx.xx.xx.xx (xx is the IP address of the PIX) wccp web-cache router-list-num 1 wccp version 2 ! On the PIX I have the following. ! wccp web-cache wccp interface LAN web-cache redirect in ! Where of course LAN is my inside interface on my network. Maybe I am missing something, but from all I can find, making the two talk WCCP to each other to cache web requests looks like it should be that simple. As I am not having much luck, I figured I'd see if anyone here has worked with this combination before, and what you did to get it all going.. --- Howard Leadmon _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
