Web Cache Redirection Configuration Example 

Usually, users access Web pages through Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). Typically, 

users connect to the Internet through LANs. For LANs containing large amount of users of 

the Internet, HTTP traffics may congest the links between the LANs and the Internet and 

may even affect the operation of other services. Web cache server can relieve the HTTP 

load on the links connecting LANs and the Internet and improve the speed of users’ 

obtaining information from the Internet. 

The Web cache redirection function provided by Switch 5500-EI series can redirect the 

HTTP traffic to Web cache servers, as illustrated in

address of VLAN-interface 10; the gateway address of PC 2 is set to the IP address of 

VLAN-interface 20. Web Cache Server is used to store the information from the Internet
