Cisco 6509 WCCP L2

Cisco 6509 WCCP L2, Can someone please tell me what the minimum software requirements are to run L2 forward & return on a IOS based 6509 w Sup720's.

I currently run SXE code and cannot get the L2 to work.

Jeff,

For current implementations of WCCP for L2 forwarding and IP Forwarding (WAAS and ACNS clients), I usually recommend SXF13 or later.

If you are using a Sup32/720 and require L2 return (depending on your WCCP client wether is supports it or not), then you have to look at the newer code for the 6500, which support L2 return in hardware. This is introduced in SXH and also supported in SXI. The exception to this would be if you are using a Sup2, and then it's supported in SXF train, where I still recommend SXF13 or later.

Hope that helps,

Dan

Jeff,

If I remember correctly you will need the 12.2(33)SXH (or later) IOS for L2 forward & return support. I know that there were many WCCP enhancements with the SHX releases.

HTH,

Mark

I know this is kind of old, but I am having trouble getting this to work with L2 on 12.2(33)SXI3. I'm using the config below and only sending one host to the proxy for testing. VLAN 100 is the VLAN connects the internal LAN to the FWSM and VLAN 3 is dedicated to proxys, both are the same VRF to allow the MSFC to route behind the firewall without bypassing it. Anything wrong with my router config?
