Content engine module
Hi, is it possible for a content engine module to work in a 2600 with the following scenario? I want the clients gateway to be the 2600 with content engine installed but I want the 2600 to forward all traffic out a seperate gateway. I know a content switch can do this but can a content module in a 2600 do it too. The reason for wanting this is I want to use url filtering software such as websense and at the moment the existing gateway/firewall is not compatible with websense so Im looking to use a 2600 with content module installed to filter webtraffic and forward out the existing gateway. Thanks
this is no problem
Just look at the nm-ce as a standalone device connected by ethernet to the 2600.
The 2600 can be the default gateway for the client and the cache [nm-ce].
The 2600 will intercept traffic from client and forward to nm-ce.
The nm-ce will use the 2600 as its default gateway.
Gilles.

Smartfilter with Content Engine Module (NM-CE-BP-40G-K9) & ACNS on 3661
I've been looking over the CCO docs, but can't find one that has sample configs for using a 3661 router containing content engine module, smartfilter, & ACNS. Topology is basically the following...
(PC's)----(LAN Switch)-----(3661 w/content engine module)----(PIX)---(internet)
I don't want to creat a new IP subnet for the 3 interfaces within the content engine module/router. I want to use the IP's from the current LAN IP Block.
Any advice appreciated.I thought this might help.

Content engine for video on the LAN
Hi
I have a video server on the LAN. I want to position the content engine on the LAN to use it for stream splitting to avoid loading the video server. Can i do this i.e. placing the Content engine on the same network as the source? Or could I use the Content engine module on the router. If so then how do I connect it?
Thank you
SanjI suggest that you use the content engine module on the router.

Content Engine Network Module for Caching File Server Objects
We have a content engine network module for a 2821 router located at a branch office that we'd like to use for clients to obtain locally cached file objects from a Windos server located at our headquarters or corporate office. I've been looking for some sample configs or documentation that will show me that this is possible and on how to do it since this is my first time ever doing. All I was able to find so far was the link below under "Support of Preloading of NTLM Authenticated Objects", but it seems incomplete in providing configuration tasks that most CCO doc's usually provide. Has anyone else had any luck finding some useful doc's or sample configs to get this accomplish? Thanks in advance.
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/webscale/uce/acns55/55ldg/urlfiltr.htm#wp1158213You can't cache Windows Files using the Cache Engines.
You CAN do this using WAFS though. I'd suggest looking at the WAFS (or upcoming WAAS) products, which use WCCP like the Cache Engines to transparently redirect Windows File Sharing requests. -
Content Engine NM ACNS/network access
After searching Google and Cisco, here's my setup...
2851 Router running 15.1T
CE-NM-BP-80G-K9 in slot 1/0
Bridge group 1 for LAN and Wireless WIC.
Goal: Either add the external CE interface to the LAN on the bridge group or use WCCP to cache traffic through the internal interface.
I was able to access ACNS once, but I'm completely new to the design and it was only for testing with the IP scheme. I reset the config, reloaded the router and now I can't access ACNS via the web gui nor can I access the network from the CE (ping or ftp).

Let me know if there's some other pertinent info, but what am I missing?SOLVED --
The mistake was my own...in writing this post and re-testing, I realized I had made a foolish mistake. I applied an access-list (which I forgot to include) to the "ip wccp web-cache redirect-list bypass_content_engine" in the global config of the router.
When I installed service 95 for spoofing, I automatically added the same access list to it as well.
This was not a good thing since the access list denied packets with a destination of our internal IP addresses from going through the content engine. This worked fine on the way *out* of the router. But as the now-spoofed packets returned, their destination was an inside IP address and they were pretty much discarded. Foolish Mistake!
Removing the ACL from the "ip wccp 95" statement in the global config fixed the issue and I am spoofing fine.
Sorry to waste time...

Content Engine transaction logs -- monitoring and analysis
At our remote sites there's a local Cisco CE511 to ease our WAN bandwidth. I have been tasked to find a method to gather CE usage for trending and troubleshooting.
From my search on the internet I decided to go with the Webalizer application. I setup the CEs to export their transaction logs every hour to my FTP server. After a test of Webalizer on a log file, it produced a nice HTML report for that hour.
I would like to discuss with anyone on bringing this up to a new level. I would like webalizer to run as a cron job, but the log file names changes every hour. So that's a hurdle I need to figure out. Also keeping track of user web hits is important. I would like to make sure my reports are accurate in reporting what IP address is the top talker.
I hope this will start a productive exchange of ideas. Thanks.Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an interoperable standards-based protocol that allows for external monitoring of the Content Engine through an SNMP agent.
An SNMP-managed network consists of three primary components: managed devices, agents, and management systems. A managed device is a network node that contains an SNMP agent and resides on a managed network. Managed devices collect and store management information and use SNMP to make this information available to management systems that use SNMP. Managed devices include routers, access servers, switches, bridges, hubs, computer hosts, and printers.
An SNMP agent is a software module that resides in a managed device. An agent has local knowledge of management information and translates that information into a form compatible with SNMP. The SNMP agent gathers data from the Management Information Base (MIB), which is the repository for information about device parameters and network data. The agent can also send traps, or notification of certain events, to the manager.

Graceful Shutdown of a Content Engine (CE510, CE565)
May I come back to y.lo's message from January this year. He asked for a shutdown or halt command for CEs.
There is a possibility to shutdown the NM-CE-BP (network module) with the service-module command form the IOS. There must be something similar in ACNS! In the manuals there is quite often a referenc to "orderly shutdown" or "gracefully shutdown", but I couldn't find the appropriate command anywhere near these references.
Thanks.Its not exactly graceful but I've always done a reload with the console plugged in, then when the BIOS messages come up for accessing the flash (before the disk scan), I power it off. The theory is the disks have been cleanly shutdown and the linux subsystem will flushed the filesystems and the content engine isn't actually running. If there is a command I'd like to know it as well.

Premiere Pro CC - Content analysis modules (French)
Hi,
from the moment I updated to Premiere pro CC (on windows 7 64 bit), the content analysis module for French has been unavailable. I have downloaded it again for the latest version (which mentions compatibility for both CS6 and CC versions) and reinstalled it, but no change. I can't select this option. I have tried several things and found the folder in common files, but it is called CS6, maybe that's a clue to why it is broken.
Anyway I urgently need this option for a very talky group of videos I have to edit and am desperate to have it working. And by the way it is broken in Prelude too, of course.
Thank you for your feedback.
DavidI did the same and it worked. There are three folders under CS6, fr_CA, fr_FR, and support. I copied the two fr folders to the 4.0 folder because there is already a support folder there and i didnt want to mess it up. It looks like the 4.0 is for the US speech engine. I guess even the big boys can sometimes dodo.

Content Engine compatability with Windows Media Player
I am currently running ACNS version 5.5 on our CE510 Content Engine. We want to set this box up to serve VOD requests from WMT. I think the clients on site are all using Windows Media Player version 10. Does this version of ACNS software work with Windows Media Player 10?
Dan
this brings up an interesting point. The content (which is canned Video on an Intranet Web site) is HTTP? I am wasting my time here by trying to use the Windows MP services?? Perhaps I already have what I need...
Your comments appreciated.

Content Conversion module in JMS Adapter - MessageTransformBean
Hi All,
We are using Content Conversion module using MessageTransformBean in JMS adapter to read a flat file from MQ Queue.It works fine and the file is getting picked and successfully converted into a xml structure in XI.
The flat file is multiple line file with each line as one xml record.But the xml structure after conversion has only one record in it.So we end up getting multiple messages each with one record instead of ONE xml structure with multiple records in it.
Could I know why I am not getting multiple records in one xml structure as expected.
Do I need to change xml.structureTitle as MyTitle,* or should I put something endSeparator like we do in File Content Conversion.
Any Help appreciated.
Thanks,

Complex XML to Plain in JMS adapter "Content conversion module"
Hi!
I have read the document on "How To use the content conversion module with XI3.0 J2EE JMS Adapter", and it says only SimpleXML can be converted in the receiver channel.
I had hoped for a solution at least as good as in the File/ftp adapter, where complex XML can be transformed to files.
Are there plans to include complex XML conversion in the JMS adapter?
I can not use the file adapter as I need to change the file name and destination, and that can not be done by adding own module to its single module.
Any idea how I can achieve what I want?
To only way I can find, is to create a file using the file/ftp adapter, and then pick it up again and treat all the lines as the same structure (one row = one xml field). Then output this new xml message to file, using the JMS adapter and add any modules with name and destination determination.
Appreciate any help!
Regards,
Oeystein EmhjellenHello,
Have you tried to use an XSLT mapping within the IE?
I have, at one customer site, created a XSLT message mapping which converts the XML to a fixed length ASCII file format. I than added the XSLT message mapping as a second mapping step on the interface mapping.
In this case I was able to publish a fairly complex fixed length file format to MQ Series via the JMS adapter.

Should the Cisco Content Engines be used as a proxy appliance
Should the Cisco Content Engine be use as a proxy appliance like a Blue Coat appliance, Squid cache engine, ISA server, etc...
I am pretty sure it is but just need some feedback on past experiences. Customer would like to by a Cisco product for Web filtering/proxy.
or is it strictly used to help with web base applications.HI,
the CE is basically able to check every request it supports. If you are using 3rd level products like smartfilter, websense or webwasher you can use the features of those products to supress/forbid certain requests(i.e MSN etc.)
