The Squid is working fine with WCCPv2 but as far as I can see in squid conf can only one wccp2_router directive defined. I need squid to communicate with multiple routers. In case I use wccp2_router 225.25.25.25 to communicate with group of routers, routers can see the squid but cannot form service group. This is a message I get from the Cisco Router: "WCCP-EVNT:S00: Here_I_Am packet from 80.x.x.x w/bad rcv_id 00000000" I have attached an email that I found in squid archive dating Tue, 02 Sep 2003 so I just want to know if squid can communicate with multiple routers using WCCPv2 (multicast or unicast)?

Ismulticast supported? Joe Cooper Tue, 02 Sep 2003 19:51:41 -0700 Squid does not support any WCCP v2 features, including multiple routers. There is a mostly unsupported patch that works as a compatibility layer between the v1 support in Squid and the slightly different interface to v2. No one has wanted v2 support badly enough to sponsor it or write it, so it hasn't happened yet. Multicast isn't an option with WCCP as far as I know...the router and the cache will exchange tokens to identify themselves. Multicast breaks that exchange. >Dear Sir, >Regarding the WCCPv2 patch for Squid2.5 pre7 , WCCPv2 model supports > >multiple caches with multiple routers.
