Enable WCCP Version 2 and WCCP services 61 and 62 (TCP promiscuous mode) on Core-Router1. Core-Router1(config)# ip wccp version 2 Core-Router1(config)# ip wccp 61 Core-Router1(config)# ip wccp 62 On Core-Router1, configure the LAN interface for redirection. This interface is where traffic will be intercepted from when leaving the data center network toward the WAN. Core-Router1(config)# interface fa1/0.40 Enable WCCP service 61 on the inbound direction of fa1/0.40. Core-Router1(config-subif)# ip wccp 61 redirect in Configure the WAN interface for redirection. This interface is where traffic will be intercepted from when entering the data center network from the WAN. Core-Router1(config)# interface serial0 Enable WCCP service 62 on the inbound direction of serial0. Core-Router1(config-if)# ip wccp 62 redirect in Configuring WCCPv2 for WAAS on a Router
To avoid redirection loops, configure the subinterface where Core-WAE1 will connect to Core-Router1. To avoid a routing loop, Core-WAE1 must not be attached to the same segment (subnet) as the interface on Core-Router1 that is performing the redirection. Make sure that you have a tertiary interface (a separate physical interface) or a subinterface (off the router’s LAN port) from which Core-WAE1 connects. In the following example, a subinterface is being used: Core-Router1(config)# interface fa1/0.41 After you create the subinterface, enter the ip wccp redirect exclude in command to specify that Core-Router1 should not repeatedly redirect the same traffic to the local WAE, Core-WAE1. Core-Router1(config-subif)# ip wccp redirect exclude in Enable Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) on Core-Router1. Core-Router1(config)# ip cef Note CEF is not required but it is recommend for improved performance. WCCP can use IP CEF if CEF is enabled on the router. Configuring WCCPv2 for WAAS on Router

This interface is where traffic will be intercepted from when leaving the data center network toward the WAN. Core-Router1(config)# interface fa1/0.40 Enable WCCP service 61 on the inbound direction of fa1/0.40. Core-Router1(config-subif)# ip wccp 61 redirect in Configure the WAN interface for redirection.

  • 32. To avoid redirection loops, configure the subinterface where Core-WAE1 will connect to Core-Router1. To avoid a routing loop, Core-WAE1 must not be attached to the same segment (subnet) as the interface on Core-Router1 that is performing the redirection. Make sure that you have a tertiary interface (a separate physical interface) or a subinterface (off the router’s LAN port) from which Core-WAE1 connects. In the following example, a subinterface is being used: Core-Router1(config)# interface fa1/0.41 After you create the subinterface, enter the ip wccp redirect exclude in command to specify that Core-Router1 should not repeatedly redirect the same traffic to the local WAE, Core-WAE1. Core-Router1(config-subif)# ip wccp redirect exclude in Enable Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) on Core-Router1. Core-Router1(config)# ip cef Note CEF is not required but it is recommend for improved performance. WCCP can use IP CEF if CEF is enabled on the router. Configuring WCCPv2 for WAAS on Router

  • 81. Bandwidth constraints keep applications from performing well Too much data and too small of a pipe causes congestion, packet loss, and backpressure Bandwidth
