[c-nsp] OT: Internet Web Caching Solution

[Luan Nguyen]

WAAS and ACNS are two different animals.  WAAS is double-ended (there has to
be a device at both ends) and ACNS is single-ended, acting as a caching
device (though it can have information pushed to it from a central manager).

Typically - WAAS between remote site and central site; ACNS between remote
site and the Internet, or as a push client receiving content from a central
site.

Hope that help.

Regards,

Hi,
I am looking for a web caching and acceleration platform.

The Cisco Cache Engines were replaced by the Content Engines which has also
been replaced with the WAE running ACNS software.

The datasheets on ACNS seem to imply caching and acceleration of multimedia
traffic between branch offices and central office, with ACNS appliances at
both ends.

That is not what I am looking for. I want a one-site appliance for Internet
web traffic caching only.

Many thanks for your clarification.

Felix
