Hi Rod,
Inktomi can advise you on configuration of the Inktomi Traffic Server.
on the cisco side, i'd recommend that you run the 12.0S train, 12.0(11)S or
later.
this will give you WCCP in DCEF on the 75xx platforms.
one thing to be aware of is that Inktomi do NOT implement the WCCP
return-path feature correctly - and thus you can potentially get a
recursive-reinterception of 'bypass' traffic.
due to this Inktomi bug (inktomi bug-ticket # unknown, but they do know
about it), you either need to:
(a) disable / not use the bypass facility of the Inktomi TS, or
(b) if you want to use the bypass facility, you need to set up
your infrastructure such that the interfaces that have the
Inktomi boxes are on a seperate physical interface to that
of the traffic being intercepted.
eg. something like:
................................
: 75xx :
:..............................:
fasteth0/0/0 fasteth0/0/1 fasteth1/0/0
| | |
| | |
(to upstream ISP) | |
(to Inktomi TS) |
(to rest of network
where traffic comes in)
you would then use a configuration like:
ip cef distributed
ip wccp version 2
ip wccp 0 password <pass>
!
interface fast0/0/1
ip wccp redirect exclude in
!
interface fast1/0/0
ip wccp 0 redirect in
!
(strictly speaking, the "redirect exclude in" on fast0/0/1 isn't
required, but it does help spell out explicitly that you don't
want any traffic intercepted when ingress on that port).
cheers,
lincoln.
