Cisco Wide Area Application Services (WAAS) Egress Methods
Overview Web Cache Communication Protocol Version 2 (WCCPv2) gives IT organizations mechanism to transparently intercept and redirect network traffic to a nearby network device, such as a Cisco Wide Area Application Engine (WAE) Appliances running Cisco Wide Area Application Services (WAAS) Software, for purposes of application acceleration and WAN optimization. By using WCCPv2 with Cisco WAAS and the Cisco WAE hardware platform, IT organizations can transparently optimize network flows for end users accessing files, applications, and other content over the WAN. The Cisco WAAS egress methods feature helps streamline and simplify WCCPv2 deployments, allowing Cisco WAEs to reside on the same subnet as users or servers and in the same address space. This paper summarizes the egress methods available for Cisco WAAS deployment when using WCCPv2.
