CITRIX Repeater with WCCP

Autor brendon

When deploying a CITRIX Repeater (formally known as WANScaler) using WCCP with a cisco router we found that the configuration on the KB isn’t quite right. Read on for the configuration.

The Repeater configuration we used are:

The CISCO Router Configuration we used is:

ip wccp 51 redirect-list wccp_redirect
ip wccp version 2
!
interface FastEthernet0/0
 Description ‘Internal LAN Interface’
 ip address 10.228.3.101 255.255.255.0
 ip wccp 51 redirect in
!
interface FastEthernet0/1
 Description ‘WAN Link’
 ip wccp 51 redirect in
!
ip access-list extended wccp_redirect
 permit host <SourceIP1> any
 permit any host <SourceIP1>
 permit host <SourceIP2> any
 permit any host <SourceIP2> 

You can use the command ‘show ip wccp 51 detail’ and ‘show ip wccp’ to check the tunnel before adding the ‘ip wccp 51 redirect in’ command on the interfaces. And believe me, you don’t want to leave a ‘debug ip wccp packet’ active on a production device that routes 30Mbit of wan traffic. Just in case the redirect list is wrong and the router tries to display all packets flowing through it….
