Hello All, I have run into some problems with a the two websites not able to load when squid is configured with wccp2. I have followed the example by Adrian Chadd, and the wiki: http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/FreeBsdAndWccp2?highlight=%28%5EConfigExamples/%5B%5E/%5D%2A%24%29 http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/InterceptionProxy Everything is working great until when we open up http://mail.google.com and http://www.hotmail.com, the websites open up ok, and you can enter the login credentials, goes pass the https stage and just before getting to the emails. The page goes quiet, and blank. Have tested this on different computers and different browsers but get the same problem. If I disable the squid, and let the users browse thru NAT on the ASA, they are able to get thru to these two sites, also when I reconfigure the squid to be non-transparent and change the settings on my browser to point to the proxy, am able to open the two sites in question. I don't see anything unusual in cache.log or access.log After googleing around for a bit, I came across a site that mentioned lowering the MTU size on the GRE tunnel, which I did to 1400 and 1390 but had no effect. (ifconfig gre0 mtu 1400) For hotmail, the intercepting proxy guide mentions to put the following entries on squid.conf, but that did not help: acl hotmail_domains dstdomain .hotmail.msn.com header_access Accept-Encoding deny hotmail_domains I know this is probably a repeated problem, though I hope someone can assist. Do let me know if there are any other details that you might need. Many thanks, and kind regards, Miraj Shah. here is a quick network diagram; LAN - ASA - Router - Internet | Squid below is the config i have set up: asa-firewall# sh run int vlan 10 ! interface Vlan10 description Internet Interface nameif internet security-level 0 ip address xxx.xxx.179.86 255.255.255.252 asa-firewall# sh run interface vlan 40 ! interface Vlan40 description Inside Interface nameif inside security-level 100 ip address 10.110.150.252 255.255.254.0 route internet 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 xxx.xxx.179.85 1 access-list inside_nat0_outbound extended permit ip any 10.110.150.0 255.255.0.0 nat (inside) 0 access-list inside_nat0_outbound nat (inside) 1 10.110.150.0 255.255.254.0 wccp web-cache wccp interface inside web-cache redirect in asa-firewall# sh wccp web-cache detail WCCP Cache-Engine information: Web Cache ID: 10.110.150.253 Protocol Version: 2.0 State: Usable Initial Hash Info: 00000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000 Assigned Hash Info: 00000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000 Hash Allotment: 0 (0.00%) Packets Redirected: 113242 Connect Time: 00:00:12 asa-firewall# sh wccp web-cache Global WCCP information: Router information: Router Identifier: xxx.xxx.179.86 Protocol Version: 2.0 Service Identifier: web-cache Number of Cache Engines: 1 Number of routers: 1 Total Packets Redirected: 113242 Redirect access-list: -none- Total Connections Denied Redirect: 0 Total Packets Unassigned: 241 Group access-list: -none- Total Messages Denied to Group: 0 Total Authentication failures: 0 Total Bypassed Packets Received: 0 asa-firewall# sh ver Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software Version 7.2(2) Device Manager Version 5.2(2) Compiled on Wed 22-Nov-06 14:16 by builders System image file is "disk0:/asa722-k8.bin" Config file at boot was "startup-config" sarova-firewall up 3 days 3 hours Hardware: ASA5505, 256 MB RAM, CPU Geode 500 MHz Internal ATA Compact Flash, 128MB BIOS Flash M50FW080 @ 0xffe00000, 1024KB Encryption hardware device : Cisco ASA-5505 on-board accelerator (revision 0x0) Boot microcode : CNlite-MC-Boot-Cisco-1.2 SSL/IKE microcode: CNlite-MC-IPSEC-Admin-3.03 IPSec microcode : CNlite-MC-IPSECm-MAIN-2.04 0: Int: Internal-Data0/0 : address is 001b.531b.5bb2, irq 11 1: Ext: Ethernet0/0 : address is 001b.531b.5baa, irq 255 2: Ext: Ethernet0/1 : address is 001b.531b.5bab, irq 255 3: Ext: Ethernet0/2 : address is 001b.531b.5bac, irq 255 4: Ext: Ethernet0/3 : address is 001b.531b.5bad, irq 255 5: Ext: Ethernet0/4 : address is 001b.531b.5bae, irq 255 6: Ext: Ethernet0/5 : address is 001b.531b.5baf, irq 255 7: Ext: Ethernet0/6 : address is 001b.531b.5bb0, irq 255 8: Ext: Ethernet0/7 : address is 001b.531b.5bb1, irq 255 9: Int: Internal-Data0/1 : address is 0000.0003.0002, irq 255 10: Int: Not used : irq 255 11: Int: Not used : irq 255 Licensed features for this platform: Maximum Physical Interfaces : 8 VLANs : 20, DMZ Unrestricted Inside Hosts : Unlimited Failover : Active/Standby VPN-DES : Enabled VPN-3DES-AES : Enabled VPN Peers : 25 WebVPN Peers : 2 Dual ISPs : Enabled VLAN Trunk Ports : 8 This platform has an ASA 5505 Security Plus license.
