Note  The WCCP configuration options appear on the Configure pane only if you have enabled WCCP in the Features table on the Configure > My Proxy > Basic > General tab.

Option	Description
WCCP Service Groups	Displays a table of the service groups defined in the wccp.config file. WCCP service group configuration defines WCCP behavior. Column fields are explained in the Configuration Editor entries below.
Refresh	Refreshes the table to display the current definitions in the wccp.config file.
Edit File	Opens wccp.config in the configuration file editor.
	wccp.config Configuration File Editor
Service group display box	Lists the WCCP service group definitions. Select an entry in the list to edit it. Use the "X" button to delete the selection. List order has no meaning; therefore, the up and down arrows can be ignored.
Add	Adds a new service group definition. After Add is clicked, the new definition is displayed in the box at the top of the page.
Set	Accepts modifications to the selected service group definition, displaying the new values in the box at the top of the page.
	Service Group Information
Service Group Status	Enables or disables the service group. This setting is not propagated around a cluster, allowing a service group to be active only on selected members. If you change this option, you must restart Content Gateway.
Service Group Name	Specifies a unique service group name. This is as an aid to administration.
Service Group ID	Specifies a service group ID between 0-255. This ID must also be configured on the router(s). If the specified number is already in use, an error is displayed when Add or Set is clicked.
Protocol	Specifies the protocol, TCP or UDP, that applies to this service group.
Ports	Specifies up to 8 ports in a comma separated list.
Network Interface	Specifies the Ethernet interface on this Content Gateway host system to use with this service group. On a V10000 appliance, eth0 is bound to P1 and eth1 is bound to P2.
	Mode Negotiation
Special Device Profile	Select ASA Firewall to specify that traffic is routed to the proxy by a Cisco ASA firewall. When this option is selected, GRE is automatically selected as the Packet Forward Method and Packet Return Method. Those settings are required and cannot be changed.
Packet Forward Method	Specifies the preferred encapsulation method used by the WCCP router to transmit intercepted traffic to the proxy. If the router supports GRE and L2, the method specified here is used. Important: GRE and Multicast are incompatible.
Packet Return Method	Specifies the preferred packet encapsulation method used to return intercepted traffic to the WCCP router. Note: If Content Gateway is configured with a Forward/Return method that the router does not support, the proxy attempts to use a method supported by the router. Note: Selecting L2 requires that the router or switch be Layer 2-adjacent (in the same subnet) as Content Gateway.
	Advanced Settings
Assignment Method	Specifies the method that the router will use to distribute intercepted traffic across multiple proxy servers. Choices are HASH and MASK. The MASK value is applied up to 6 significant bits (in a cluster, a total of 64 buckets are created). See your WCCP documentation for more information about assignment method. Use the value recommended in the manufacturer's documentation for your device.
Distribution attribute(s)	Specifies the attribute that the assignment method uses to determine which requests are distributed to which proxy servers. If the assignment method is HASH, select one or more distribution attributes. If the assignment method is MASK, select one distribution attribute.
Weight	Specifies the distribution of requests to servers in a cluster by proportional weighting. Set weight to a value that is the desired proportion of the total flow of traffic. When all cluster members have a value of 0 (the default), distribution is equal. If any member has a non-zero value, distribution is proportional, relative to the weight values of other members. Members that continue to have a value of zero, receive no traffic.
Reverse Service Group ID	For use only when IP spoofing is enabled. When IP spoofing is enabled, the proxy advertises a reverse service group for each enabled WCCP forward service group. The reverse service group must be applied along the return path of origin server responses to the proxy.
	Router Information
Security (optional)	Enables or disables security so that the router and Content Gateway can authenticate each other. If you enable security in Content Gateway, you must also enable security on the router. See your router documentation. If you change this option, you must restart Content Gateway.
Security:Password	Specifies the password used for authentication. The password must be the same password as that configured on the router and can be a maximum of eight characters long. If you change this option, you must restart Content Gateway.
Multicast (optional)	Enables or disables WCCP multicast mode. Important: Cannot be used with GRE packet Forward/Return method. If you change this option, you must restart Content Gateway.
Multicast: IP Address	Specifies the multicast IP address. If you change this option, you must restart Content Gateway.
WCCP Routers: Router IP Address	Specifies the IP addresses of up to 10 WCCP v2-enabled routers. If you change this option, you must restart Content Gateway.
WCCP Routers: Local GRE Tunnel Endpoint IP Address	If GRE is selected for Packet Forward Method or Packet Return Method, also specify Local GRE Tunnel Endpoint IP Addresses. These are Content Gateway tunnel endpoints for the associated Router IP Addresses. A Local GRE Tunnel Endpoint IP Address: Must be IPv4 Must be unique and not assigned to any device Must be a routable IP address Should reside on the same subnet as the proxy. If it is not, you must define a route for it. Is not intended to be a client-facing proxy IP address Is bound to the physical interface specified for the service group (on a V-Series appliance, eth0 = P1; eth1 = P2)
WCCP Routers: GRE Tunnel Next Hop Router IP Address	Specify a GRE Tunnel Next Hop Router IP Address when GRE Packet Return Method is configured and Content Gateway does not have a route back to the WCCP router. You can use "ping" to test connectivity to the router.
