Hi,

I configured transparent squid box and WCCPv2 with CISCO 6k5. After some time I noticed that clients have problems with HTTPS sites. If I manually configure proxy setting in browser and bypass WCCP everything goes OK. I'm using standard service group (web-cache). Maybe some web server check that HTTP and HTTPS request are coming with same source address and block HTTPS access. Clients and squid are on public addresses and this requests come with different source IPs. I can't change this and
put clients and squid boxes behind NAT machine. :(
Is anyone notice that same behavior? Maybe I can setup service-group with 80 and 443 port so I can resolve
issues with different IPs, is this correct?

Squid doesn't currently handle transparently intercepting SSL, even for
the situation you require above.

You should investigate the TPROXY Squid integration which, when combined with a correct WCCPv2 implementation and compatible network design, will allow your requests to look like they're coming from your client
IPs.

The other alternative is to write or use a very basic TCP connection proxy which will handle transparently intercepted connections and just connect to the original destination server. This will let the requests "come from"
the same IP as the proxy.

(Yes, I've done the above in the lab and verified the concept works fine.)

Hi Adrian,
I am also facing the same problem with https sites. Yahoo works fine with me but I am having problem with hotmail. Please advice me on how do I handle this or is there any guide which I can refer to.

Thanking you,
Hemant.
