I need help configuring WCCP protocol to redirect FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, and SMTP traffice via Websense appliance.

Your help woudl be greatly appreciated.

Please tell us which product you are using and the version.

Eg.  ServerIron ADC 1008 ver 12.0c or do a 'show version' and post the results.

[janet.graham]

The Content Filter device is Websense V5000

The Core Switch is Foundry MG8 BigIron

Boot version is 2.3.0cT105

sorry for the late responce (but you will not like it anyway )

WCCP is implemented in the ServerIron products (I think) - I am sure that the MG8 cannot do that.

Question,

Can packets pass through from the Foundry MG8 Big Iron and have the WCCP v2.0 on the Cisco ASA 5540 Firewall to redirect communication to the Websense appliance?

Hi Janet,

     Yes that will work so long as default gateway on the MG8 points to the Cisco ASA.

Thanks

Michael
