Re: [squid-users] cisco wccp problem

[Reuben Farrelly]

I don't know what sort of Cisco router you have, but _don't_ assume that 
12.3(1) does not have bugs especially given it is the first 12.3 
release.  WCCP won't work for me on my test 1720 with this version of IOS - 
IMHO 12.3 is a bit too bleeding edge to be running on a production 
network.  The WCCP redirected packets on my network just seem to be 
blackholed and I haven't had time to figure out why yet.

I suggest you try 12.2(15)T7 or 12.2(13)T5 as these have had a bit more 
testing and are in my experience more likely to work.

If you aren't sure if you have it set up correctly on your squid server 
then at least as an interim method, set up policy routing (see the FAQ) as 
this is almost as good (but more of a killer on CPU usage).

then it have to be router's fault that it doesn't redirect the packets

either it has a bug ( i don't think so, since it's 12.3(1), so a pretty 
new IOS), or it's configuration is wrong, or maybe it doesn't recognize 
that the traffic passing through is http
how does it recognize http ? by destination  port number ?
