Verifying a multiple in-path interface configuration
You can verify that multiple SteelHeads are participating in WCCP with one or more routers using a multiple in-path interface configuration.
• Because the SteelHeads are configured as neighbors, messages appear in the log at INFO level when the neighbors connect to each other, and the log displays a list of in-path IP addresses.
• When the weight computation is about to begin, a message appears in the log at INFO level that the SteelHead interface with the lowest IP address is taking over as the lead cache.
• When the weight computation is complete, a REDIRECT_ASSIGN WCCP message appears from the SteelHead interface with the lowest IP address. This message includes the load balancing information from the hash or mask value table.
