Example WCCP server and client configuration for caching HTTP sessions (service ID = 0)
Enter the following command to add a WCCP service group to a WCCP server that caches HTTP sessions. The IP address of the server is 10.31.101.100 and the WCCP clients are on the 10.31.101.0 subnet. The service
ID of this service group is 0.
config system wccp
edit 0
set router-id 10.31.101.100
set server-list 10.31.101.0 255.255.255.0
end
Enter the following commands to configure a FortiGate unit to operate as a WCCP client and add a service group that configures the client to cache HTTP sessions. The IP address of the server is 10.31.101.100 and IP address of this WCCP clients is 10.31.101.1 subnet. The service ID of this service group is 0.
config system settings
set wccp-cache-engine enable
end
config system wccp
edit 0
set cache-id 10.31.101.1
set router-list 10.31.101.100
end
| You cannot enter the wccp-cache-engine enable command if you have already added a WCCP service group. When you enter this command an interface named w.<vdom_name> is added to the FortiGate configuration (for example w.root). All traffic redirected from a WCCP router is considered to be received at this interface of the FortiGate unit operating as a WCCP client. A default route to this interface with lowest priority is added. |
