Its a global thing; it'll use that forwarding method for all devices. You then just configure interception on the Linux server as you would for GRE - you don't need the GRE tunnel but you keep the port 80 redirect rule. You'll want to use the mask assignment method over the default hash method - the mask assignment method will allow a lot more traffic to be redirected in hardware rather than being punted to the MSFC for classification. All the classification is done in hardware rather than bugging the MSFC for all/part of it. wccp2_assignment_method 2 (I haven't tested the mask assignment method stuff here as I don't yet have anything that speaks mask assignment yet. I've had reports that it works fine with a 6500/7600 w/ Sup32.) As for multicast; I'm working on tidying up the WCCPv2 support to allow for future flexibility but I haven't got a timeframe for multicast support. If anyone would like to sponsor WCCPv2 multicast support then please let me know. Adrian -- - Xenion - http://www.xenion.com.au/ - Hosting and Commercial Squid Support -
