Configuring ICAP Interface Support
This section describes how to configure the Content Filtering Server Group (CFSG) through Internet Content
Adaptation Protocol (ICAP) interface between ICAP client and ACF server (ICAP server).
Important:
This section provides the minimum instruction set for configuring external content filtering servers
on ICAP interface on the system. For more information on commands that configure additional parameters and options,
refer to
CFSG Configuration Mode Commands
chapter in
Command Line Interface Reference
.
To configure the system to provide ICAP interface support for external content filtering servers:
Step 1
Create the Content Filtering Server Group and create ICAP interface with origin (local) IP address of chassis by
applying the example configuration in the
Creating ICAP Server Group and Address Binding
section.
Step 2
Specify the active content filtering server (ICAP server) IP addresses and configure other parameters for ICAP server
group by applying the example configuration in the
Configuring ICAP Server and Other Parameters
section.
Step 3
Configure the content filtering mode to external content filtering server group mode in ECS rule base by applying the
example configuration in the
Configuring ECS Rulebase for ICAP Server Group
section.
Step 4
Optional
. Configure the charging action to forward HTTP/RTSP/WAP GET request to external content filtering servers
on ICAP interface in Active Charging Configuration mode by applying the example configuration in the
Configuring
Charging Action for ICAP Server Group
section.
Step 5
Verify your ICAP interface and external content filtering server group configuration by following the steps in the
Verifying the ICAP Server Group Configuration
section.
Step 6
Save your configuration to flash memory, an external memory device, and/or a network location using the Exec mode
command
save configuration
. For additional information on how to verify and save configuration files, refer to the
System Administration Guide
and the
Command Line Interface Reference
.
Creating ICAP Server Group and Address Binding
Use the following example to create the ICAP server group and bind the IP addresses:
configure
context
<icap_ctxt_name>
[ -noconfirm ]
content-filtering server-group
<icap_svr_grp_name>
[ -noconfirm ]
origin address
<ip_address>
end
Notes:
<ip_address>
is local IP address of the CFSG endpoint.
