Verifying a multiple in-path interface configuration
This section describes how to verify that multiple appliances are participating in WCCP with one or more routers using a multiple in-path interface configuration.
1. Because the appliances 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.
2. When the weight computation is about to begin, a message appears in the log at INFO level that the appliance interface with the lowest IP address is taking over as the lead cache.
3. When the weight computation is complete, a REDIRECT_ASSIGN WCCP message appears from the appliance interface with the lowest IP address. This message includes the load balancing information from the hash or mask value table.
