Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
This command enables you to manage Interprocess Communication Channel (IPC) resources between two route processors. If there is congestion between the two route processors, use this command to set a lower rate.
If the replication rate is exceeded, IOS SLB issues an appropriate error message.
General packet radio service (GPRS) load balancing without GPRS Tunneling Protocol (GTP) cause code inspection enabled does not support the ip slb replicate slave rate command in global configuration mode.
The Home Agent Director does not support the ip slb replicate slave rate command in global configuration mode.
Examples
The following example sets the replication message rate to 500 messages per second:
Router(config)# ip slb replicate slave rate 500Related Commands
ip slb route
To enable IOS Server Load Balancing (IOS SLB) to route packets using the RADIUS framed-IP sticky database, or to route packets from one firewall real server back through another firewall real server, use the ip slb route command in global configuration mode. To route packets normally, use the no form of this command.
ip slb route {framed-ip deny | ip-address netmask framed-ip | inter-firewall}
no ip slb route {framed-ip deny | ip-address netmask framed-ip | inter-firewall}
Syntax Description
Defaults
Cisco IOS SLB cannot route packets using the RADIUS framed-IP sticky database, nor can it route packets from one firewall real server back through another firewall real server.
Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
This command enables IOS SLB to inspect packets whose source IP addresses match the specified IP address and subnet mask. IOS SLB then searches for the packet's source IP address in the RADIUS framed-IP sticky database. If the database contains a matching entry, IOS SLB routes the packet to the associated real server. If the database does not contain a matching entry, IOS SLB routes the packet normally.
The inter-firewall keyword is useful when traffic is arriving from an address behind a firewall, is destined for an address behind a firewall, and has a sticky entry to be routed via the routing table.
Examples
The following example enables IOS SLB to inspect packets with the source IP address 10.10.10.1:
Router(config)# ip slb route 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.255 framed-ipRelated Commands
ip slb serverfarm
To identify a server farm and enter SLB server farm configuration mode, use the ip slb serverfarm command in global configuration mode. To remove the server farm from the IOS Server Load Balancing (IOS SLB) configuration, use the no form of this command.
ip slb serverfarm server-farm
no ip slb serverfarm server-farm
Syntax Description
server-farm
Character string used to identify the server farm. The character string is limited to 15 characters.
Defaults
No server farm is identified.
Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Grouping real servers into server farms is an essential part of IOS SLB. Using server farms enables IOS SLB to assign new connections to the real servers based on their weighted capacities, and on the load-balancing algorithms used.
Examples
The following example identifies a server farm named PUBLIC:
Router(config)# ip slb serverfarm PUBLICRouter(config-slb-sfarm)#Related Commands
real (server farm)
Identifies a real server by IP address and optional port number as a member of a server farm and enters real server configuration mode.
ip slb static
To configure a real server's Network Address Translation (NAT) behavior and enter static NAT configuration mode, use the ip slb static command in global configuration mode. To restore the real server's default NAT behavior, use the no form of this command.
ip slb static {drop | nat {virtual | virtual-ip [per-packet | sticky]}}
no ip slb static {drop | nat {virtual | virtual-ip [per-packet | sticky]}}
Syntax Description
Defaults
If you do not specify either the per-packet or sticky keyword, IOS SLB maintains connection state for packets originating from the real server.
Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
If you specify the virtual-ip argument and you do not specify the per-packet option, IOS SLB uses server port translation to distinguish between connection requests initiated by different real servers.
Static NAT with the per-packet option specified does not load-balance fragmented packets.
Examples
The following example specifies that the real server is to use server NAT and to use virtual IP address 10.1.10.1 when translating addresses, and that IOS SLB is not to maintain connection state for any packets originating from the real server:
Router(config)# ip slb static nat 10.1.10.1 per-packetRelated Commands
ip slb timers gtp gsn
To change the amount of time IOS Server Load Balancing (IOS SLB) maintains sessions to and from an idle gateway general packet radio service (GPRS) support node (GGSN) or serving GPRS support node (SGSN), use the ip slb timers gtp gsn command in global configuration mode. To restore the default GPRS support node (GSN) idle timer, use the no form of this command.
ip slb timers gtp gsn duration
no ip slb timers gtp gsn duration
Syntax Description
Defaults
The default duration is 90 seconds.
Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
This command sets the GSN idle timer for all IOS SLB virtual servers that are configured for GPRS Tunneling Protocol (GTP) cause code inspection. When the GSN idle timer expires, IOS SLB destroys all sessions to and from the idle GGSN or SGSN.
Examples
The following example specifies that IOS SLB maintains sessions for 45 seconds after a GGSN or SGSN becomes idle:
Router(config)# ip slb timers gtp gsn 45Related Commands

ip tcp adjust-mss
To adjust the maximum segment size (MSS) value of TCP synchronize/start (SYN) packets going through a router, use the ip tcp adjust-mss command in interface configuration mode. To return the MSS value to the default setting, use the no form of this command.
ip tcp adjust-mss max-segment-size
no ip tcp adjust-mss max-segment-size
Syntax Description
Command Default
The MSS is determined by the originating host.
Command Modes
Interface configuration (config-if)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
When a host (usually a PC) initiates a TCP session with a server, it negotiates the IP segment size by using the MSS option field in the TCP SYN packet. The value of the MSS field is determined by the maximum transmission unit (MTU) configuration on the host. The default MSS value for a PC is 1500 bytes.
The PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) standard supports an MTU of only 1492 bytes. The disparity between the host and PPPoE MTU size can cause the router in between the host and the server to drop 1500-byte packets and terminate TCP sessions over the PPPoE network. Even if the path MTU (which detects the correct MTU across the path) is enabled on the host, sessions may be dropped because system administrators sometimes disable the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) error messages that must be relayed from the host in order for path MTU to work.
The ip tcp adjust-mss command helps prevent TCP sessions from being dropped by adjusting the MSS value of the TCP SYN packets.
The ip tcp adjust-mss command is effective only for TCP connections passing through the router.
In most cases, the optimum value for the max-segment-size argument is 1452 bytes. This value plus the 20-byte IP header, the 20-byte TCP header, and the 8-byte PPPoE header add up to a 1500-byte packet that matches the MTU size for the Ethernet link.
If you are configuring the ip mtu command on the same interface as the ip tcp adjust-mss command, we recommend that you use the following commands and values:

Usage Guidelines
It is unlikely you will need to change the default value.
Examples
The following example sets the maximum TCP read size to 64,000 bytes:
ip tcp chunk-size 64000ip tcp compression-connections
To specify the total number of Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) header compression connections that can exist on an interface, use the ip tcp compression-connections command in interface configuration mode. To restore the default, use the no form of this command.
ip tcp compression-connections number
no ip tcp compression-connections
Syntax Description
Command Default
For PPP and High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) interfaces, the default is 16 compression connections.
For Frame Relay interfaces, the default is 256 compression connections.
Command Modes
Interface configuration (config-if)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
You should configure one connection for each TCP connection through the specified interface.
Each connection sets up a compression cache entry, so you are in effect specifying the maximum number of cache entries and the size of the cache. Too few cache entries for the specified interface can lead to degraded performance, and too many cache entries can lead to wasted memory.
Note
Examples
The following example sets the first serial interface for header compression with a maximum of ten cache entries:

ip tcp header-compression
To enable Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) header compression, use the ip tcp header-compression command in interface configuration mode. To disable compression, use the no form of this command.
ip tcp header-compression [passive | iphc-format | ietf-format]
no ip tcp header-compression [passive | iphc-format | ietf-format]
Syntax Description
Command Default
Disabled
For PPP interfaces, the default format for header compression is the IPHC format.
For High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) and Frame Relay interfaces, the default format is as described in RFC 1144, Compressing TCP/IP Headers for Low-Speed Serial Links.
Command Modes
Interface configuration (config-if)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
You can compress the headers of your TCP/IP packets in order to reduce the size of your packets. TCP header compression is supported on serial lines using Frame Relay, HDLC, or PPP encapsulation. You must enable compression on both ends of a serial connection. Compressing the TCP header can speed up Telnet connections dramatically.
In general, TCP header compression is advantageous when your traffic consists of many small packets, not for traffic that consists of large packets. Transaction processing (usually using terminals) tends to use small packets and file transfers use large packets. This feature only compresses the TCP header, so it has no effect on User Datagram Protocol (UDP) packets or other protocol headers.
The passive Keyword
By default, the ip tcp header-compression command compresses outgoing TCP traffic. If you specify the passive keyword, outgoing TCP traffic is compressed only if incoming TCP traffic on the same interface is compressed. If you do not specify the passive keyword, all outgoing TCP traffic is compressed.
For PPP interfaces, the passive keyword is ignored. PPP interfaces negotiate the use of header-compression, regardless of whether the passive keyword is specified. Therefore, on PPP interfaces, the passive keyword is replaced by the IPHC format, the default format for PPP interfaces.
The iphc-format Keyword
The iphc-format keyword indicates that the IPHC format of header compression will be used. For PPP and HDLC interfaces, when the iphc-format keyword is specified, Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP) header compression is also enabled. For this reason, the ip rtp header-compression command appears in the output of the show running-config command. Since both TCP header compression and RTP header compression are enabled, both TCP packets and UDP packets are compressed.
The iphc-format keyword is not available for interfaces that use Frame Relay encapsulation.
Note
The ietf-format Keyword
The ietf-format keyword indicates that the IETF format of header compression will be used. For HDLC interfaces, the ietf-format keyword compresses only TCP packets. For PPP interfaces, when the ietf-format keyword is specified, RTP header compression is also enabled. For this reason, the ip rtp header-compression command appears in the output of the show running-config command. Since both TCP header compression and RTP header compression are enabled, both TCP packets and UDP packets are compressed.
The ietf-format keyword is not available for interfaces that use Frame Relay encapsulation.
Note
Examples
The following example sets the first serial interface for header compression with a maximum of ten cache entries:
Router> enableRouter# configure terminalRouter(config)# interface serial 0Router(config-if)# ip tcp header-compressionRouter(config-if)# ip tcp compression-connections 10Router(config-if)# endThe following example enables RTP header compression on the Serial1/0.0 subinterface and limits the number of RTP header compression connections to 10. In this example, the optional iphc-format keyword of the ip tcp header-compression command is specified.

ip tcp mss
To enable a maximum segment size (MSS) for TCP connections originating or terminating on a router, use the ip tcp mss command in global configuration mode. To disable the configuration of the MSS, use the no form of this command.
ip tcp mss bytes
no ip tcp mss bytes
Syntax Description
Defaults
This command is disabled.
Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
If this command is not enabled, the MSS value of 536 bytes is used if the destination is not on a LAN, otherwise the MSS value is 1460 for a local destination.
For connections originating from a router, the specified value is used directly as an MSS option in the synchronize (SYN) segment. For connections terminating on a router, the value is used only if the incoming SYN segment has an MSS option value higher than the configured value. Otherwise the incoming value is used as the MSS option in the SYN/acknowledge (ACK) segment.
Note
Examples
The following example sets the MSS value at 250:
ip tcp mss 250Related Commands
ip tcp header-compression
Specifies the total number of header compression connections that can exist on an interface.
ip tcp path-mtu-discovery
To enable the Path MTU Discovery feature for all new TCP connections from the router, use the ip tcp path-mtu-discovery command in global configuration mode. To disable the function, use the no form of this command.
ip tcp path-mtu-discovery [age-timer {minutes | infinite}]
no ip tcp path-mtu-discovery [age-timer {minutes | infinite}]
Syntax Description
Defaults
Disabled. If enabled, the minutes default is 10.
Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Path MTU Discovery is a method for maximizing the use of available bandwidth in the network between the endpoints of a TCP connection. It is described in RFC 1191. Existing connections are not affected when this feature is turned on or off.
Customers using TCP connections to move bulk data between systems on distinct subnets would benefit most by enabling this feature.
The age timer is a time interval for how often TCP reestimates the path MTU with a larger MSS. When the age timer is used, TCP path MTU becomes a dynamic process. If the MSS used for the connection is smaller than what the peer connection can handle, a larger MSS is tried every time the age timer expires. The discovery process is stopped when either the send MSS is as large as the peer negotiated, or the user has disabled the timer on the router. You can turn off the age timer by setting it to infinite.
Examples
The following example enables Path MTU Discovery:
ip tcp path-mtu-discoveryip tcp queuemax
To alter the maximum TCP outgoing queue per connection, use the ip tcp queuemax command in global configuration mode. To restore the default value, use the no form of this command.
ip tcp queuemax packets
no ip tcp queuemax
Syntax Description
packets
Outgoing queue size of TCP packets. The default value is 5 segments if the connection has a TTY associated with it. If no TTY is associated with it, the default value is 20 segments.
Defaults
The default value is 5 segments if the connection has a TTY associated with it. If no TTY is associated with it, the default value is 20 segments.
Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Changing the default value changes the 5 segments, not the 20 segments.
Examples
The following example sets the maximum TCP outgoing queue to 10 packets:
ip tcp queuemax 10ip tcp selective-ack
To enable TCP selective acknowledgment, use the ip tcp selective-ack command in global configuration mode. To disable TCP selective acknowledgment, use the no form of this command.
ip tcp selective-ack
no ip tcp selective-ack
Syntax Description
This command has no arguments or keywords.
Defaults
Disabled
Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
TCP might not experience optimal performance if multiple packets are lost from one window of data. With the limited information available from cumulative acknowledgments, a TCP sender can learn about only one lost packet per round-trip time. An aggressive sender could resend packets early, but such re-sent segments might have already been received.
The TCP selective acknowledgment mechanism helps overcome these limitations. The receiving TCP returns selective acknowledgment packets to the sender, informing the sender about data that has been received. The sender can then resend only the missing data segments.
TCP selective acknowledgment improves overall performance. The feature is used only when a multiple number of packets drop from a TCP window. There is no performance impact when the feature is enabled but not used.
This command becomes effective only on new TCP connections opened after the feature is enabled.
This feature must be disabled if you want TCP header compression. You might disable this feature if you have severe TCP problems.
Refer to RFC 2018 for more detailed information on TCP selective acknowledgment.
Examples
The following example enables the router to send and receive TCP selective acknowledgments:
ip tcp selective-ackRelated Commands
ip tcp synwait-time
To set a period of time the Cisco IOS software waits while attempting to establish a TCP connection before it times out, use the ip tcp synwait-time command in global configuration mode. To restore the default time, use the no form of this command.
ip tcp synwait-time seconds
no ip tcp synwait-time seconds
Syntax Description
seconds
Time (in seconds) the software waits while attempting to establish a TCP connection. It can be an integer from 5 to 300 seconds. The default is 30 seconds.
Defaults
The default time is 30 seconds.
Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
In versions previous to Cisco IOS software Release 10.0, the system would wait a fixed 30 seconds when attempting to establish a TCP connection. If your network contains public switched telephone network (PSTN) dial-on-demand routing (DDR), the call setup time may exceed 30 seconds. This amount of time is not sufficient in networks that have dialup asynchronous connections because it will affect your ability to Telnet over the link (from the router) if the link must be brought up. If you have this type of network, you may want to set this value to the UNIX value of 75.
Because this is a host parameter, it does not pertain to traffic going through the router, just for traffic originated at this device. Because UNIX has a fixed 75-second timeout, hosts are unlikely to experience this problem.
Examples
The following example configures the Cisco IOS software to continue attempting to establish a TCP connection for 180 seconds:
ip tcp synwait-time 180ip tcp timestamp
To enable TCP time stamp, use the ip tcp timestamp command in global configuration mode. To disable TCP time stamp, use the no form of this command.
ip tcp timestamp

Usage Guidelines
TCP time stamp improves round-trip time estimates. Refer to RFC 1323 for more detailed information on TCP time stamp.
The TCP time stamp must be disabled if you want to use TCP header compression.

ip tcp window-size
To alter the TCP window size, use the ip tcp window-size command in global configuration mode. To restore the default window size, use the no form of this command.
ip tcp window-size bytes
no ip tcp window-size
Syntax Description
Command Default
The default window size is 4128 bytes when window scaling is not enabled. If only one neighbor is configured for the window scaling extension, the default window size is 65535 bytes.
Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Do not use this command unless you clearly understand why you want to change the default value.
To enable window scaling to support Long Fat Networks (LFNs), the TCP window size must be more than 65,535 bytes. The remote side of the link also needs to be configured to support window scaling. If both sides are not configured with window scaling, the default maximum value of 65,535 bytes is applied.
The scale factor is automatically calculated based on the window-size that you configure. You cannot directly configure the scale factor.
Examples
The following example shows how to set the TCP window size to 1000 bytes:
ip tcp window-size 1000ip unreachables
To enable the generation of Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) unreachable messages, use the ip unreachables command in interface configuration mode. To disable this function, use the no form of this command.
ip unreachables
no ip unreachables
Syntax Description
This command has no arguments or keywords.
Defaults
Enabled
Command Modes
Interface configuration (config-if)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
If the Cisco IOS software receives a nonbroadcast packet destined for itself that uses a protocol it does not recognize, it sends an ICMP unreachable message to the source.
If the software receives a datagram that it cannot deliver to its ultimate destination because it knows of no route to the destination address, it replies to the originator of that datagram with an ICMP host unreachable message.
This command affects all types of ICMP unreachable messages.
Examples
The following example enables the generation of ICMP unreachable messages, as appropriate, on an interface:

Usage Guidelines
The ip vrf vrf-name command creates a VRF instance named vrf-name. To make the VRF functional, a route distinguisher (RD) must be created using the rd route-distinguisher command in VRF configuration mode. The rd route-distinguisher command creates the routing and forwarding tables and associates the RD with the VRF instance named vrf-name.
The ip vrf default command can be used to configure a VRF instance that is a NULL value until a default VRF name can be configured. This is typically before any VRF related AAA commands are configured.
Examples
The following example shows how to import a route map to a VRF instance named VPN1:
ip vrf vpn1rd 100:2route-target both 100:2route-target import 100:1Related Commands
ip vrf (tracking)
To track an IP route in a specific VPN virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) table, use the ip vrf command in tracking configuration mode. To remove the tracking of the route, use the no form of this command.

ip wccp
To enable support of the specified Web Cache Communication Protocol (WCCP) service for participation in a service group, use the ip wccp command in global configuration mode. To disable the service group, use the no form of this command.
ip wccp [vrf vrf-name] {web-cache | service-number} [accelerated] [service-list service-access-list] [mode {open | closed}] [group-address multicast-address] [redirect-list access-list] [group-list access-list] [password [0 | 7] password]

Syntax Description
Command Default
WCCP services are not enabled on the router.
Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
WCCP transparent caching bypasses Network Address Translation (NAT) when fast (Cisco Express Forwarding [CEF]) switching is enabled. To work around this situation, WCCP transparent caching should be configured in the outgoing direction, fast/CEF switching should be enabled on the content engine interface, and the ip wccp web-cache redirect out command should be specified. Configure WCCP in the incoming direction on the inside interface by specifying the ip wccp redirect exclude in command on the router interface facing the cache. This configuration prevents the redirection of any packets arriving on that interface.
You can also include a redirect list when configuring a service group and the specified redirect list will deny packets with a NAT (source) IP address and prevent redirection. Refer to the ip wccp command for configuration of the redirect list and service group.
This command instructs a router to enable or disable the support for the specified service number or the web-cache service name. A service number can be from 0 to 254. Once the service number or name is enabled, the router can participate in the establishment of a service group.
The vrf vrf-name keyword and argument pair is optional. It allows you to specify a vrf to associate with a service group. You can then specify a web-cache service name or service number.
The same service (web-cache or service number) can be configured in different VRF tables. Each service will operate independently.
When the no ip wccp command is entered, the router terminates participation in the service group, deallocates space if none of the interfaces still has the service configured, and terminates the WCCP task if no other services are configured.
The keywords following the web-cache keyword and the service-number argument are optional and may be specified in any order, but only may be specified once. The following sections outline the specific usage of each of the optional forms of this command.
ip wccp [vrf vrf-name] {web-cache | service-number} group-address multicast-address
A WCCP group address can be configured to set up a multicast address that cooperating routers and web caches can use to exchange WCCP protocol messages. If such an address is used, IP multicast routing must be enabled so that the messages that use the configured group (multicast) addresses are received correctly.
This option instructs the router to use the specified multicast IP address to coalesce the "I See You" responses for the "Here I Am" messages that it has received on this group address. The response is sent to the group address as well. The default is for no group address to be configured, in which case all "Here I Am" messages are responded to with a unicast reply.
ip wccp [vrf vrf-name] {web-cache | service-number} redirect-list access-list
This option instructs the router to use an access list to control the traffic that is redirected to the web caches of the service group specified by the service name given. The access-list argument specifies either the number or the name of a standard or extended access list. The access list itself specifies which traffic is permitted to be redirected. The default is for no redirect list to be configured (all traffic is redirected).
WCCP requires that the following protocol and ports not be filtered by any access lists:
•
•
ip wccp [vrf vrf-name] {web-cache | service-number} group-list access-list
This option instructs the router to use an access list to control the web caches that are allowed to participate in the specified service group. The access-list argument specifies either the number of a standard or extended access list or the name of any type of named access list. The access list itself specifies which web caches are permitted to participate in the service group. The default is for no group list to be configured, in which case all web caches may participate in the service group.
Note
ip wccp [vrf vrf-name] {web-cache | service-number} password password
This option instructs the router to use MD5 authentication on the messages received from the service group specified by the service name given. Use this form of the command to set the password on the router. You must also configure the same password separately on each web cache. The password can be up to a maximum of eight characters. Messages that do not authenticate when authentication is enabled on the router are discarded. The default is for no authentication password to be configured and for authentication to be disabled.
ip wccp service-number service-list service-access-list mode closed
In applications where the interception and redirection of WCCP packet flows to external intermediate devices for the purpose of applying feature processing are not available within Cisco IOS software, it is necessary to block packet flows for the application when the intermediary device is not available. This blocking is called a closed service. By default, WCCP operates as an open service, wherein communication between clients and servers proceeds normally in the absence of an intermediary device. The service-list keyword can only be used for closed mode services. When a WCCP service is configured as closed, WCCP discards packets that do not have a client application registered to receive the traffic. Use the service-list keyword and service-access-list argument to register an application protocol type or port number.
When the definition of a service in a service list conflicts with the definition received via WCCP protocol, a warning message similar to the following is displayed:
Sep 28 14:06:35.923: %WCCP-5-SERVICEMISMATCH: Service 90 mismatched on WCCP client 10.1.1.13When there is a conflict in service list definitions, the configured definition takes precedence over the external definition received via WCCP protocol messages.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure a router to run WCCP reverse-proxy service, using the multicast address of 239.0.0.0:
Router(config)# ip multicast-routingRouter(config)# ip wccp 99 group-address 239.0.0.0Router(config)# interface ethernet 0Router(config-if)# ip wccp 99 group-listenThe following example shows how to configure a router to redirect web-related packets without a destination of 10.168.196.51 to the web cache:
Router(config)# access-list 100 deny ip any host 10.168.196.51Router(config)# access-list 100 permit ip any anyRouter(config)# ip wccp web-cache redirect-list 100Router(config)# interface ethernet 0Router(config-if)# ip wccp web-cache redirect outThe following example shows how to configure an access list to prevent traffic from network 10.0.0.0 leaving Fast Ethernet interface 0/0. Because the outbound ACL check is enabled, WCCP does not redirect that traffic. WCCP checks packets against the ACL before they are redirected.
Router(config)# ip wccp web-cacheRouter(config)# ip wccp check acl outboundRouter(config)# interface fastethernet0/0Router(config-if)# ip access-group 10 outRouter(config-if)# ip wccp web-cache redirect outRouter(config-if)# access-list 10 deny 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255Router(config-if)# access-list 10 permit anyIf the outbound ACL check is disabled, HTTP packets from network 10.0.0.0 would be redirected to a cache, and users with that network address could retrieve web pages when the network administrator wanted to prevent this from happening.
The following example shows how to configure a closed WCCP service:

Syntax Description
This command has no arguments or keywords.
Defaults
WCCP services are not enabled on the router.
Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
With the ip wccp check services all command, WCCP can be configured to check all configured services for a match and perform redirection for those services if appropriate. The caches to which packets are redirected can be controlled by a redirect ACL access control list (ACL) as well as by the priority value of the service.
It is possible to configure an interface with more than one WCCP service. When more than one WCCP service is configured on an interface, the precedence of a service depends on the relative priority of the service compared to the priority of the other configured services. Each WCCP service has a priority value as part of its definition.
If no WCCP services are configured with a redirect ACL, the services are considered in priority order until a service is found which matches the IP packet. If no services match the packet, the packet is not redirected. If a service matches the packet and the service has a redirect ACL configured, then the IP packet will be checked against the ACL. If the packet is rejected by the ACL, the packet will not be passed down to lower priority services unless the ip wccp check services all command is configured. When the ip wccp check services all command is configured, WCCP will continue to attempt to match the packet against any remaining lower priority services configured on the interface.

Syntax Description
Command Default
Redirection checking on the interface is disabled.
Command Modes
Interface configuration (config-if)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
WCCP transparent caching bypasses Network Address Translation (NAT) when fast (Cisco Express Forwarding [CEF]) switching is enabled. To work around this situation, WCCP transparent caching should be configured in the outgoing direction, fast/CEF switching enabled on the Content Engine interface, and the ip wccp web-cache redirect out command specified. Configure WCCP in the incoming direction on the inside interface by specifying the ip wccp redirect exclude in command on the router interface facing the cache. This prevents the redirection of any packets arriving on that interface.
You can also include a redirect list when configuring a service group and the specified redirect list will deny packets with a NAT (source) IP address and prevent redirection. Refer to the ip wccp command for configuration of the redirect list and service group.
The ip wccp redirect in command allows you to configure WCCP redirection on an interface receiving inbound network traffic. When the command is applied to an interface, all packets arriving at that interface will be compared against the criteria defined by the specified WCCP service. If the packets match the criteria, they will be redirected.
Likewise, the ip wccp redirect out command allows you to configure the WCCP redirection check at an outbound interface.

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to set the interface from which WCCP may derive the router ID and GRE source address. The router ID must be a reachable IPv4 address.
The interface identified by the source-interface argument must be assigned an IPv4 address and be operational before WCCP uses the address as the router ID. If the configured source interface cannot be used to derive the WCCP router ID, a Cisco IOS error message similar to the following is displayed:
%WCCP-3-SIFIGNORED: source-interface interface ignored (reason)The reason field in the error output indicates why the interface has been ignored and can include the following:

Command History
Usage Guidelines
The group-address group-address option requires a multicast address that is used by the router to determine which cache engine should receive redirected messages. This option instructs the router to use the specified multicast IP address to coalesce the "I See You" responses for the "Here I Am" messages that it has received on this group address. In addition, the response is sent to the group address. The default is for no group-address to be configured, so that all "Here I Am" messages are responded to with a unicast reply.
The redirect-list access-list option instructs the router to use an access list to control the traffic that is redirected to the cache engines of the service group that is specified by the service-name given. The access-list argument specifies either a number from 1 to 99 to represent a standard or extended access list number, or a name to represent a named standard or extended access list. The access list itself specifies the traffic that is permitted to be redirected. The default is for no redirect-list to be configured (all traffic is redirected).
The group-list access-list option instructs the router to use an access list to control the cache engines that are allowed to participate in the specified service group. The access-list argument specifies either a number from 1 to 99 to represent a standard access list number, or a name to represent a named standard access list. The access list specifies which cache engines are permitted to participate in the service group. The default is for no group-list to be configured, so that all cache engines may participate in the service group.
The password can be up to seven characters. When you designate a password, the messages that are not accepted by the authentication are discarded. The password name is combined with the HMAC MD5 value to create security for the connection between the router and the cache engine.
