RE: [squid-users] WCCP: Web Cache ID 0.0.0.0

Henrik,

Thanks for the info, I will follow up with Cisco to see what they have
to say. When I get an anser I will post it to the list. In the
meantime, is there anyone out there running squid with WCCP that can
recommend an IOS & squid combination (versions)?

Thanks,
Bryan

Seems to be an IOS version or configuration issue to me as your router
tells that the buckets have been assigned to the cache but no GRE
packets
is seen by tcpdump at the cache server.

That "Web Cache ID" field is maintained by the router and should
probably
indicate the sender address of the WCCP control packets if it has any
meaning. It is not something carried within the WCCP messages sent by
Squid.

But it could also be your IOS version being more picky about the WCCP
control messages than the tested versions. But if this was the case it
should not indicate that the buckets have been assigned to the cache, or

should at least indicate the cache is not yet useable.

Henrik
