ASA 5510 cache clearing question

kencranmer · ‎01-26-2010

We have a company website and when an image is changed the old image is still seen on the website internally. The image name is the same so I am suspecting it is cached on the ASA. Is there a way to clear this without reloading? Thanks.

Greetings,

The ASA device does not cache L7 data unless you are using it in conjunction with Websense, Smartfilter, or some other caching engine. Is this the case?

Otherwise, try browsing to the web page in question and hit Ctrl+F5 and see if the new image appears.

Do you use a proxy? If so it might cache the website and serve that to you. Uncheck the proxy option on the browser and try the site again.

Also clear the cache from the browser and try.

I cleared the cache on the primary and secondary DNS servers and that seemed to do the trick. Thanks for the input.
