Verify web redirection to the cloud  
Step 1: 
From a client machine, browse to 
. If a message is displayed, “User is not 
currently using the service,” then the traffic is not redirected to the Cisco cloud. This can be useful in 
determining if: the user is being resolved correctly, any groups being discovered, the internal/external IP 
of the user/location, and what Connector is in use. 
This is an example of a successful 
 output: 
authUserName: "WinNT://CISCO\\user" 
authenticated: true 
companyName: Cisco 
connectorGuid: 0123456789ABCDEF1234-0123456789AB 
connectorVersion: coeus-x-x-x-xxx 
countryCode: US 
externalIp: 12.34.56.78 
groupNames:  
  - "WinNT://CISCO\\Group” 
internalIp: 1.2.3.4 
logicalTowerNumber: 1782 
staticGroupNames:  
  - "WinNT://CISCO\\Group” 
userName: "WinNT://CISCO\\user" 
Step 2: 
From a client machine, browse to 
 and enter a URL to see how the web 
request is processed against the current web filtering policy. 
Step 3: 
With SearchAhead enabled in ScanCenter (the CWS admin portal), browse to Google, Bing, or 
Yahoo and search for something.  The SearchAhead data should be prepended to each search result in 
the form of a green, yellow, or red dot.  Mouse over the dot to see what information is contained within. 
*Note: the search engine may enforce search results being displayed using HTTPS (such as Google).  In 
this case you must enable HTTPS Inspection to see the Search Ahead results.
