service group | Specifies the service group identification number (ID) (from 0 to |
<service ID> | 255). The service group ID is the number that is set on the router. A |
| value of 0 specifies the standard http service group which redirects |
| only HTTP traffic. |
|
|
router | The router IP is a multicast group IP address or a unicast router IP |
<ip_address> | address. A total of 32 routers can be specified. |
|
|
flags | Specifies the combination of |
identifier> | hash, |
| the router hashes on and if certain ports should be redirected. |
|
|
ports | Specifies a comma separated list of up to seven ports that the router |
<portnumber> | will redirect. Use only if |
| set. |
|
|
priority <priority- | Specifies the WCCP priority for traffic redirection. If a connection |
number> | matches multiple service groups on a router, the router chooses the |
| service group with the highest priority. The range is |
| default value is 200. |
|
|
password <string> | Specifies the WCCP password. This password must be the same as |
| the password on the router. (WCCP requires that all routers in a |
| service group have the same password.) Passwords are limited to 8 |
| characters. |
|
|
weight <value> | The weight determines how often the traffic is redirected to a |
| particular HP EFS WAN Accelerator. A higher weight redirects more |
| traffic to that HP EFS WAN Accelerator. The ratio of traffic |
| redirected to an HP EFS WAN Accelerator is equal to its weight |
| divided by the sum of the weights of all the HP EFS WAN |
| Accelerators in the same service group. For example, if there are two |
| HP EFS WAN Accelerators in a service group and one has a weight of |
| 100 and the other has a weight of 200, the one with the weight 100 |
| receives 1/3 of the traffic and the other receives 2/3 of the traffic. The |
| range is |
| TCP connections your appliance supports. |
|
|
encap_scheme | Specifies the traffic forwarding and redirection scheme: GRE |
<string> | encapsulation (gre) or |
| |

Connecting the HP EFS WAN Accelerator to
Your Network in WCCP Deployments
There are two Ethernet cables attached to the HP EFS WAN Accelerator in WCCP deployments:
A Straight through cable to the Primary interface. You use this connection to manage the HP EFS WAN Accelerator, reaching it through HTTPS or SSH.
A Straight through cable to the WAN interface. You assign an IP address to the
