WAAS 4.0.9 /WAE 612-K9 not accelerating
I have a central site and four remote sites connected via leased lines, I receive a demo with 3 WAE-612-K9 (4.0.9 s/w version)for testing purposes. I connect one WAE as a CM and one WAE as application acceleration at the central site and the another at the remote site. I want to have Web and MS Exchange acceleration at first but I don't see any improvement. The central site have one 3845 router and the remote 2811 both with IOS 12.4(13c) version. Any help please ?
Yes I see some connetions to be optmized, my problem/question is why I cannot see http optimization for my intranet site since the traffic is marked PT .
I am using the default policy in both WAEs , as I can see the policy marks http traffic to be full optimized.
On the cms I cannot see any Reduction taking place , all traffic marks as 0.
In both WAEs sh statistics dre shows all 0's
and no hard drive space used.
The mail servers are MS Exchange 2003 with smtp connectors between them , one server per site. It's possible to improve e-mail too ?

WAE 612 + ACNS 5.5.5 Help
I've been trying to setup a WAE 612 w/ ACNS 5.5.5, and I've run into a few problems. The goal is to setup a transparent forward proxy for WMT files. This is a standalone unit. The edge router that this device is hooked up to is a Cisco 7206VXR running IOS 12.4(12).
Initially, I configured WCCP outbound redirects on the WAN facing port of our edge router, and WCCP traffic seemed to be generated between the content engine and the router. `show statistics wccp gre,` it would return something like the following:
Transparent GRE packets received: 54919
Transparent non-GRE packets received: 0

Unfortunately, when the clients attempted to call up a WMT video, it would go through the process of buffering, initializing, and going to a ready state; but the video would not play. The 'show statistics wmt all' would only increment the error counter with each play attempt; none of the other statistics from this command would change.
Next I attempted to just set this up as a non-transparent WMT proxy and configured an individual test Windows 9 Media client to reference the WAE as an RTSP proxy. It experienced the same problem as above. 'show statistics wmt all' would still only show error count increases with each attempted video, but nothing else would increment. This leads me to believe that the problem is not WCCP related, but something with my WAE configuration. I can successfully traceroute from my WAE to the video server; likewise, I can traceroute without problems from the WAE to my Windows media client machine.
Also, when I do commands such as 'show statistics mediafs,' the values for 'space used by WMT proxy' sometimes increments for an attempt to load a video; at best, the increase is about 12KB.
Here's the current WAE configuration file:

Waas (4.2.1) in inline mode not optimizing
Hello
noob-question here regarding waas, sorry for that.
But I've been reading all day and I can't understand why this isn't working.
It seems traffic is not optimized, the graphs in the central manager are basically empty.
I'm currently working on a deployment with 3xappliances
Where 1 is the manager and 2 WAE
Location of these WAE is pretty much in different continents.
I will call them New York and Sydney from here.
The hardware of the WAE's is
New York WAVE-274-K9
Sydney WAVE-574-K9
And these are setup in inline mode.
So basically we have a switch and an ASA on both sites, in between is the WAE listening to all VLANs.
The ASA's are configured for inspect waas.
Versions on all of them is 4.2.1.
In NY all I'm seeing when I issue 'sh stat conn' is
PT in progress
PT No peer
This is making me think that somehow the WAE's are not finding each other.
In the central manager under both WAE's
Automatically Configure Peer is checked.
However I'm not sure how to verify that they are actually discovering each other.
Below are some show commands, not sure if they are to any help.
Looking at the inlinegroup in New York
sh int inlinegroup 1/1
Interface is in intercept operating mode.
WAN Port :

Hello, I have the following problem, after finish the rebuild of my Raid-1 in the WAE-612-K9 equipment, it show a critical alert:
- CMS STATUS IS OFFLINE.
I try ACTIVATE the WAE via web interface , but this doesn´t work.
Please somebody have any ideas about what happend....???
The version of software is 4.1.3A.
Thanks very much for you help.
Regards
Fernando.Do you have telnet/ssh access to the device? If so you need to deregister the device and then re register the device. I am no expert, but this will fix the issue at the expense of histrical data.

Ensuring a Successful RAID Pair Rebuild
RAID pairs will rebuild on the next reboot after you use the restore factory-default command, replace or add a hard disk drive, delete disk partitions, or reinstall WAAS from the booted recovery CD-ROM.
Caution You must ensure that all RAID pairs are done rebuilding before you reboot your WAE device. If you reboot while the device is rebuilding, you risk corrupting the file system.
To view the status of the drives and check if the RAID pairs are in "NORMAL OPERATION" or in "REBUILDING" status, use the show disk details command in EXEC mode. When you see that RAID is rebuilding, you must let it complete that rebuild process. This rebuild process may take several hours. ** -

This message deals with a particular connection-id (5784671) and DRE aggregation information. I don't think you need to be concerned unless you start seeing this a lot in the syslogs.

WAE 612 deployed in HA - how do I set it up????
Can anyone give me some advise of deploying WAE at a branch site in HA Mode?
Is it possible for them to work in some kind of HA mode?
I don't plan on having the devices inline - So they will both be connected to a switch and use WCCP (well that's the plan anyway)
Any advise is welcomeHi,
Just make sure to configure all your WAEs at a given site to talk to the same set of WCCP routers using the same WCCP services (WAAS uses WCCP services 61 and 62 by default). In this case, WCCP will automatically load-balance between all WAEs available in the WCCP cluster. WCCP will also adapt the load-balancing scheme whenever a WAE leaves or joins the WCCP cluster, thus achieving HA (if only a single WAE remains in the cluster, all load will be sent to that remaining WAE).
Please find further information on WCCP here:

I have a WAE 600 series box that I can't get to boot. It comes up to "F1 for configuration/F12 for boot menu". Neither option goes anywhere and it has an orange "system error" light on the front panel. I've reseated the flash card and memory, no luck. Any ideas? Or do I have a paperweight?
The WAE 600 series is a fairly newer box. What software was/is running on it. It can run ACNS, WAAS AND WAFS ? Based on that answer, you can build a boot CD and try doing a recovery with the CD.
For ACNS, the recovery cd instructions are here:

After WAAS 5.3.1 upgrade Report Central not working...
Updated from 5.2.1 to 5.3.1 a little over a week ago. Noticed that my automated summary report was no longer being sent. When trying to access Report Central (on the CM) there is nothing listed on the page except some header text "Report Templates" and an informational note "Pre-5x completed reports will be shown in old format".
Is anyone else encountering this issue? I will probably open a case, but wanted to see if this is a general problem.
Thank you...

Marking SAP packets in WAE-612 v4.1.3a
Hi,
My client ask me if i could mark the SAP traffic with Precedence 1.
What did i done ? Figure "SAP cs1.JPG"
Application Classifier = Figure "SAP Ports.JPG"
When seeing Connection Statistics in CM GUI, filtering destination port 3201, i can see connections but not see the Classifier Name as SAP ....
I had defined as "Classifier" SAP in "Policy Definitions", and had set DSCP Marking as CS1 .
How can i see, if the packets is beeing marked for that specifically Classifier ?
SAP is one of the default Classifier of Enterprise-Applications.
I only want to mark the SAP packets ...
Did i do it right ??
Best Regards.
Bruno PetrónioOld connections ->
"When seeing Connection Statistics in CM GUI, filtering destination port 3201, i can see connections but not see the Classifier Name as SAP .... "
New connections already had SAP as Classifier Name.
Marking Packets its working, althought the global policy application is configured to copy the packets, the Classifier Policy Definitions takes priority on behalf of Default Global Policy application.
But... how can i see, in gui or cli, if the packets is beeing marked... and how many ???
Best Regards,

Re: MPE not accelerating RED Epic 5K playback?
How come the Mercury Playback Engine doesn't seem to be accelerating R3D 5K files for preview playback?
Is there a strong correlation? Or just a rubbish correlation?
I wouldn't sweat it. Render bars are really a poor indication of what's going on in a sequence. If you're getting good playback, you really shouldn't worry about the color of the render bar.

How do I upgrade from WAAS CM on WAE-7326 to vWAAS CM
My WAAS network comprises of WAE-612 and WAE-7326 Running Sotware version 4.3.3.1, these are old and we are now going to Cisco 3945 Routers with SRE WAAS and the vWAAS as Central Manager.
The problem is how do I get the configuration across from the 7326 that is a CM to the vWAAS CM?
Can the vWAAS run software version 4.4? if so my standyby CM is a WAE612 which can be upgraded to 4.4, so I would make that the primary CM the new vWAAS as standby, so then the configuration would go across to the new vWAAS. once done make the vWAAS primary again, then install a second vWAAS as standby.
is the above possible?
I can't find any documentation about upgrading the WAAS neworkHi Edward,
For the upgrade process, you'll have to follow this procedure :
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/app_ntwk_services/waas/waas/v541/release/note/waas541xrn.html#pgfId-171257
So either down grade your vCM to 4.4.7 (this requires that it is a vCM-100 or -2000)
- there probably is a vCM 4.4.7 image out there somewhere, but these could be hard to get.
- or just use the "copy ... install" on your vCM, to get it downgraded.
or use the 294 method (same methodology applies)
But as I see it, there is no need to play around wit ha secondary CM, you don't need the CM to ensure optimization, when things are up and running.
You can easily change a CM to an accellerator by configuration and a reload, unless we're taking vWAAS, where the ova image is locked.
remember to take a backup of your CMS database and place it somewhere else, before starting upgrading.
Best Regards

I suspect that the Installer program on the Rescue CD can't detect the Hardware properly, and thus can't find the proper drivers for the platform.
Is there any manual method of forcing the Rescue CD Installer to use a particular hardware model?
Thanks,
TomHi Zach,
>What led you to change the Adaptec configuration?
I was directed to do so by TAC, although I wasn't sure why, since our other WAE-612-k9s didn't have this option enabled.
>What is the state of the device prior to upgrading? Does the WAAS software boot?
After disabling the hardware raid, the WAE could run any 4.0.x version, but could not upgrade to 4.1/4.2. I tried both the "rescue CDs" for 4.1/4.2, and the "copy ftp install" methods. "Rescue CDs" would work right up to the option for "wipe disks and install .bin" image, but would report "no disks" as shown above. The "copy ftp install" from version 4.0.27 would install the 4.2.1.38 image, but upon reboot, it would fail during the boot sequence

Frustrated, I looked at the boot logs and might have found an issue. On the "faulty" WAE-612, the boot script detects two SCSI adapters; only one shows up in BIOS POST.
The first adapter (Adaptec AIC79XX) has no drives, but is assigned the device name "scsi0"
Under the second adapter(Adaptec AIC94XX), the Hard disks are detected, and it's assigned a device name of "scsi1"

To contrast, our functioning WAE-612s do not have this second detected Adaptec host adapter, and are properly assigned a "scsi0" for their device name.

On our faulty WAE-612, in the section that tries to mount the detected drives, it appears that the script is looking for the physical drives under the "scsi0" device name, using the AIC94XX driver.. .

wn, or it has unknown data.
/ruby/bin/ruby_disk: Second disk is bad, missing, or shutdown; bailing out
I'm guessing this fails because there are no physical drives on "scsi0", they are assigned on "scsi1". If the disk mapping script would've tried , I think the drives would've been mounted properly.
I was hoping there was a modified script out there somewhere, but after our 3rd RMA'd WAE exhibited the same characteristics (these were all in Chennai India), I directed the onsite tech to remove the Adaptec 29320ALP UltrasSCSI adapter.
With the adapter removed, the 4.2.1.38 code installed and booted properly.
When I forwarded my results to TAC, our Rep mentioned that the WAE-612-k9 ships with both ACNS and WAE capabilities. He said that ACNS uses that additonal SCSI card.
I'm fairly sure our configuration is not unique; our environment consists of 32 WAEs, and this is the first time that I've encountered this issue.
I'm just happy it's resolved now.
Thanks for your insight, Zach

History active connections WAAS (WAE)
Hi Folks!
I need extract the history active connections from WAE-512 and WAE-612. For example, in hour XX:XX I was X number of active connections.How I can do this? It´s possible? Exist SNMP OID to collect this information if not is possible in Central Manager?
Thanks.Hi Harrisson,
Thanks for marking this Answered.
You can use WAE Central Manager to export these numbers to any NetFlow analyzer.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/app_ntwk_services/waas/waas/v421/configuration/guide/planning.html#wp1041835
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/app_ntwk_services/waas/waas/v421/configuration/guide/monitor.html#wp1163526
WAAS does flow the agent to any netflow collector / analyzer. NetQoS and NAM can understand this traffic directly where as you will need additional customized api if you want to export the stats from WAAS to others.
All these APIs are publicly available and listed here: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6870/products_programming_reference_guides_list.html
Cisco WAAS reporting using NetFlow can be done with almost any NetFlow collector that supports both ingress and egress flows. One of the 3rd party has posted this on their website. Best Practices blog releated to Cisco WAAS and NetFlow.

Hope this helps.

WAAS IP ACL not matching traffic
Hi,
i'm trying to configure some ip access-lists on a WAAS but it seems that it's not matching the traffic.
interface InlineGroup 1/0 inline vlan all
ip access-group test in exit
ip access-list extended test deny icmp any any
exit
Im still able to ping wherever i want.
Any ideas? Or is it not possible to handle traffic with ACLs like that on WAAS?
Thanks,
MarkusHi Markus,
Interface ACL—Applied on the built-in, port channel, standby, and inline group interfaces. This type of ACL is intended to control management traffic (Telnet, SSH, and Central Manager GUI). The ACL rules apply only to traffic that is destined for the WAE or originates from the WAE, not WCCP transit traffic. Use the
ip access-group interface configuration command to apply an interface ACL.
As explained above the ACL rule apply only to traffic destined to the WAE or originated from the WAE and not for transit traffic. Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Rajesh
