service group

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 <hash-bit-

Specifies the combination of src-ip-hash, dst-ip-hash, src-port-

identifier>

hash, dst-port-hash,ports-dest,ports-source that define the fields

 

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 ports-destor ports-sourceservice flag is

 

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 0-255. The

 

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 0-65535. The default value corresponds to the number of

 

TCP connections your appliance supports.

 

 

encap_scheme

Specifies the traffic forwarding and redirection scheme: GRE

<string>

encapsulation (gre) or Layer-2 (l2) redirection. The either value uses

 

Layer-2 first—if Layer-2 is not supported, gre is used.

 

 

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 In-Path interface; this is the IP address that you redirect traffic to.
