HP StorageWorks Enterprise File Services WAN Accelerator 3.0.4 deployment guide (AG421-96001, March 2007)

76 7 - WCCP DEPLOYMENTS
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.
A Basic WCCP Configuration
This section describes how to configure a router and the HP EFS WAN Accelerator to
use WCCP to redirect traffic in a single subnet using the CLI.
You can also use the Management Console to configure the HP EFS WAN Accelerator
to use WCCP. In this example, the server-side is assumed to be out-of-path.
IMPORTANT: This is an example of one type of WCCP deployment. You can also have
deployments with both HP EFS WAN Accelerators configured as in-path devices and WCCP
configured on one of them.
Figure 7-2. Basic WCCP Configuration
Connecting the
HP EFS WAN
Accelerator
To set up an HP EFS WAN Accelerator for WCCP, the HP EFS WAN Accelerator
WAN interface is connected to a switch or router (not necessarily the one configured
for WCCP) that can reach the switch or router where WCCP is configured and where
redirection will occur.
