Re: [squid-users] WCCP issue

Yes, it is.

But I found a quite strange condition. The router installer used OSPF for
all of our network, and I think it is bad. They put a command in the IOS as
below:

------------------------------------------------------------
!
interface Loopback0
ip address loop.back.ip.addr 255.255.255.252
!
-------------------------------------------------------------

And the WCCP show command displayed :

*************************************************

***********************************************

From the information above, I am sure that my WCCP module is OK. As the
router got a correct information of cache engine.

I am pretty curios why the WCCP refer to the loopback IP address instead IP
of the Ethernet that I state in the squid.conf. Perhaps that is the answer
why the HTTP packet was not redirected.

Thx & Rgds,
