Chapter: FX Series Network Settings
Section: WCCP

MN-FXSERIESADM6 Rev 5

Ports:

This defines the TCP and UDP ports that the router should transparently redirect to the FX. Up to
8 ports may be specified separated by a comma. The default value is 80.

Ports refer to:

This indicates if the ports field pertains to the source port (for responses from content server) or
destination port (for requests from clients). The default value is “Source”.

Use additional service group:

You can define two service groups within the same WCCP definition. This is normally used if you want the
FX to preserve the source IP address of the remote clients when making requests to content servers on
behalf of those clients. However, if using the “extra” group then the definition is not deemed as non-
critical and will not verify that “critical” service groups are in a usable state. If this is set you must also
enable “Preserve client IP addresses” in the “Other” section on the “Configure->General” page. See more
detailed description titled “WCCP IP Spoofing Configuration” below. The default value is “Disabled”.

User-facing service group:

This is the WCCP service group that the FX should join to receive redirected client. The FX will
not attempt to join this group unless it successfully enrolls in the main service group. This
prevents the situation where client requests are redirected to the FX when it is not able to
receive server responses. The default value is 99.

Comment:

A comment of up 80 characters can be entered into this field.
