Other WCCP Configurations
Using “redirect-list” to select specific redirection
For testing purposes, or to gradually stage traffic redirection to the FX Series ADC, a Cisco router will
support redirection by either access control lists or group lists. For example:
ip wccp 99 redirect-list
access-list
LAN and In-Path Interface Requirements for WCCP
The FX Series uses the eth2 physical interface to conduct the WCCP protocol with the router or switch and
also to receive redirected requests and responses. Therefore in order to configure WCCP, you must
define an in-path interface with an IP address that is on the same subnet as the Cisco router or switch.
The gateway for this in-path interface must be that of the Cisco router or switch
interface the appliance
is connected to
. The VLAN ID must be 0. Following this, a LAN interface must be defined for eth3 and
assigned to the aforementioned In-Path interface.
Configuring WCCP on earlier models
On FX-1000 and some earlier models of FX-4000, the specialized fail-to-wire network interface card
requires that an eth3 LAN interface be defined in order to run WCCP over eth2, even though it’s not
actually used. Therefore, on an FX-1000, an in-path interface with a non-existent VLAN must be defined.
This in-path interface must subsequently be assigned to a LAN interface for eth3. It is not required that
the eth3 physical interface be cabled to anything.
