Enter one of the following values for the service_group variable:
  •
web-cache. Enter “web-cache” when the appliance WCCP service uses the standard service.
  •
Service ID number. Enter a number from 0 to 255 when the appliance WCCP service uses a 
dynamic service ID. The number should match the service ID number used in the appliance.
 describes each part of the WCCP configuration syntax for enabling WCCP on the router. 
You can also configure a WCCP router to perform other tasks, such as the following:
  •
Configure the router from exclude redirecting traffic received on a particular interface.
  •
If the network uses multiple Web Security appliances, you can configure the router to determine 
which traffic should be directed to which appliance by using an access list. You might want to 
redirect only some of the network traffic to the appliance if you are evaluating the Web Security 
appliance.
