WCCP v2 setup outline
Steps
-
Install and configure your WCCP v2 devices. On each WCCP v2 device:
- Configure the service groups.
- Configure password security, if needed.
- Configure multicast communication, if needed. See Configuring WCCP v2 routers.
-
Configure Content Gateway to work with your WCCP devices.
- Define matching service groups.
In addition to network interface, protocols, ports, authentication (if used), and multicast communication (if used), also configure:
- The IP addresses of the WCCP v2 devices.
- The Packet Forward Method and Packet Return Method.
- If Content Gateway is deployed in a cluster, assignment method load distribution, if desired.
- Create ARM redirect rules for non-standard ports.
See Enabling WCCP v2 in Content Gateway and The Content Gateway ARM.
- Define matching service groups.
- Validate the configuration with test traffic.
