Waas mobile + waas appliance

Topology
waas mobile client ---------waas appliance---------wan---------waas appliance---------waas mobile server---------------applications/servers
What will happen in this topology?  Who is going to perform the acceleration function?
Can waas mobile client/server talk to waas appliance?
Thanks
Joe

Hi Joe,
Waas Mobile and WAAS are going to be both optimizing traffic in this case. 
While  WAAS mobile will tunneled all the traffic so Optimized data is  transmitted over UDP port 1182 and session initiation and control uses  TCP port 1182.
WAAS appliance will perform same transparent method,  by applying option 33 (0x21) and changing the tcp sequence so both WAE's  (dc and remote site) can see each other and apply optimization to the  tcp flow.
Since WAAS mobile will have already compressed data  initially, when the tcp flow hist WAAS appliance devices I expect that  the optimization there will be minimum.
You might  consider to have WAAS Mobile next to your VPN hubs, so remote  desktop/laptops are able to get optimization when ingress in your  network and  won't waste WAAS appliances resources  which will perform  double optimization, first in waas mobile then in waas itself.
Hope the information helps.
Thank you
Rubens

  • WAAS mobile with secure access https (not VPN)

    Hi all !!! Hope everyone is well !!!
    I have a WAAS environment in place we want to deploying WAAS mobile for teleworkers. My question is, can WAAS mobile works for users that use secure access with https (not vpn connexion)
    Thanks in advance !!!

    Hi Tarik,
    First of all, let me insist on the fact the a WAAS mobile client will not interact with a WAAS appliance on the core side and that you'll need to have a WAAS mobile installed there is you want your teleworkers to get the benefit from WAAS.
    That said, let me answer your question: WAAS mobile can indeed accelerate HTTPS traffic.
    This is described on page 61 of the following document:

    I've tried rebooting, but get the same error.
    Any suggestions?

    The quickest solution might be to try to reinstall followed by another uninstall, or to use the Windows Install Cleanup Utility, (although Microsoft has removed it from their support site with the following disclaimer). 
    Notice
    This article previously contained a link to the Windows Installer Cleanup utility (MSICUU2.exe). If you were directed to this article to solve a problem installing a product other than Microsoft Office, please contact your software manufacturer for installation support on the product.
    While the Windows Installer Cleanup utility resolved some installation problems, it sometimes damaged other components installed on the computer. Because of this, the tool has been removed from the Microsoft Download Center.
    Nonetheless, here is an active link and basic instructions:
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    1.     To use the Windows CleanUp utility, follow these steps:
    a.     Click Start, point to Programs, and then click Windows Install Clean Up.
    b.     Select the program that you want to remove, and then click Remove.
    c.     Click OK, and then click Exit.
    If these suggestions do not help, then perhaps a case should be opended with TAC and they could assist with gathering the installer log files.

  • Windows 8 compatibility and WAAS Mobile.

    Hi, everyone,
    I have undertaken the possibly mad quest of getting WAAS Mobile working on Windows 8. I am currently receiving the error "TDI driver failed to initialize." Does anyone have any insight into that issue?
    Thanks,
    Tom

    Holly,
    Not news about it yet. You may discuss it with your Cisco Account team for additional details or requests.
    Jorge
    Mark it if used, the other customer can use it as reference in the future.

  • WAAS Mobile Server Time/Date incorrect

    Hi,
    I cannot seem to find where I configured the time/date settings for the WAAS mobile server.
    The Win 2008 server that the Mobile server is installed on has the right time, but the WAAS mobile server itself does not.
    At the moment it is using GMT.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    Where do you see this GMT timestamp?  It may be by design.

  • Could any expert in WAAS Mobile see this question?

    Hi everybody!
    I succesfully installed WAAS Mobile in a customer. Everything worked fine with WAAS, except for a particular application. WAAS Mobile is not working with a particular client/server Application. When WAAS Client is running, the Application Client is not able to connect to the Application Server.
    Analyzing the packets capture with Wireshark, I observed that the first 3 packets are not being redirected to the WAAS Mobile Server. It is going straight to the Application Server.
    At first I thought that I needed to add another process to the Proxied Process list in WAAS. But using the TCPView software I can see that the process that is sending the first packets is the one that I already added to the Proxied Process list.
    The question is: Is it normal for these first packets not passing through WAAS Mobile Server? Or all the packets of the process should be redirected to the WAAS Mobile Server? Could this problem be a bug? What is the best way to troubleshoot this?
    Thanks!
    Marcio

    First of all, individual packets are not passed thru to the WAAS Mobile Server. All TCP connections for accelerated applications are terminated on the client. The packet content is encapsulated and passed to the WAAS Mobile Server using a UDP connection on port 1182. The fact that you saw packets going to the application server means that the applicaiton in question is not being optimized for whatever reason. To determine the reason, please generate a client and server System Report directly after exercising the problem application with WAAS Mobile. Either open a TAC case for the issue or send the system reports to the Cisco SE assigned to your account. The system reports can then be analyzed to determine why the application is being bypassed.

  • WAAS Mobile - Client install on a biometric enabled laptop

    WAAS Mobile 3.4 client fails to install on a laptop with fingerprint authentication with the message relation to "incompatible филе". Деталс аs follows:
    Authentication Manager
    BIOLSP.DLL
    Version 1.4.0.99
    Any ideas how to sort this out?
    Thanks
    DG

    Please park this question for now. The installation problem was resolved by upgrading the Wave Systems Dell Embassy trust suite to ver.V2.0.0.39.
    The problem we have now is with the client failing UDP connection test. I will investigate further, unless it is a 'known' problem and someone knows a solution.

  • WAAS mobile with Vista

    Hi All,
    when I turn on WAAS client on the windows Vista, the network connection is disconnected but it works with XP like a charm. any suggestion would be very appreciated.
    Alex

    Thanks for the reply,
    I've upgraded to newest version of WAAS mobile and upgrade client as well and problem has been resolved. But still I have another issue, when I run Cisco VPN client with WAAS mobile enable, then I try to access to the web page intranet. I can ping web server IP address, I can access to the web page, but when I enter username and password, it doesn't let me to login. when I turn off WAAS client, I am able to login to intranet web page.
    any suggetion?
    thanks

  • WAAS Mobile 3.4 - Cannot Uninstall

    One user has a windows 7 laptop and the uninstall process errors out.  Have tried uninstalling from both the programs and from the icon for program uninstall.
    Any suggestions?
    We upgraded to 3.5 too - and the auto upgrade won't work either - a message came up that we have to manually uninstall the client first.

    1 - How is this performed? 
    A driver on the WAAS Mobile Server initiates TCP connections to the application and content server using the user’s source IP.
    2 - Does the waas mobile needs to be inline?
    We do not recommend deploying WAAS Mobile inline. When the source IP transparency option is selected, the WAAS Mobile server should be deployed in conjunction with a Layer 4 switch such as a Cisco ACE with mac-sticky capability that redirects traffic back to the WAAS Mobile server.  The Layer 4 switch could be inline.
    3 - Does it send the packets with the source ip on the header or use another option on the header? 
    Yes, the user’s source IP is in the header.
    4 - How is the mobile server located on the topology? See response above.
    5 - How can we add redundancy if the waas mobile is inline? Multiple WAAS Mobile servers may be deployed using ACE server load balancing to provide redundancy.
    6 - Can the waas mobile server use the fail-to-wire feature?  WAAS Mobile servers are not recommended to be deployed inline.

  • WAAS Mobile & Windows 7

    Hi All,
    I was told on this board that a new version of the WAAS Mobile client would be released in the first week of April '10. New version would be compatible with Vista & Win7 both 32 & 64 bit versions.
    I cant find the original thread to follow up so am posting anew.
    Dont see anything in the download area. Wondering if anyone knows anything about this version - it's holding up a large project we are almost done with.
    The chap from Cisco that responded was, I think, Ken - as I say, cant find the original post..
    thanks!
    Iain

    The WAAS Mobile 3.5 release is in its final stages and is targeted for release by the end of April (this week!).

  • WAAS Mobile - Outlook Webmail (OWA)

    While running our new instance of WAAS Mobile, we've got one issue we cannot understand.  Outlook Web Access does not work under WAAS Mobile.  If we disable it, works fine.
    We are able to ping the OWA server with the WAAS Mobile client enabled or disabled however we cannot connect to it via it's web interface.
    I've enabled HTTPS for the WAAS Mobile to optimize on the client but this did not help.  So far i'm at a loss.
    Any ideas?

    Is the session TCOP session to OWA accelerated ?
    1)  Connect to your OWA
    2) On the WAAS Mobile Client - Go to http://127.0.0.1:9021/Acceleration_Client.html
    3) Navigate to the section Diagnostics --> TCP Sessions, Does the TCP session show up as accelerated ?
    You can also collect the sysreport from the client and server and attach it to this forum.

  • WAAS Mobile HA between 2 Data Centres

    We have to deploy WAAS Mobile between 2 Data Centres, with remote user connecting to either DC across VPN & then connecting to a local WAAS Mobile server. We are trying to understand the best way to configure this from the available documentation on CCO.
    We are a bit confused re the role of the WAAS Mobile Manager Server.
    Is this similar to the role of Central Manager on normal WAAS, i.e configuration/management etc, or does it have any function in the selection of the server a client will connect to.
    Regarding HA & Load balancing of the connections between the Data Centres, this is how we think we should deploy it!
    Deploy a Server Farm at each DC & use the Latency based method of farm selection. This way the client should connect to the local server farm, based on which DC the VPN connects to?
    Is this correct, has anyone deployed WAAS mobile in this way or have any advice?
    Thanks
    Colin

    Fabricpath is L2; not related to the L3 technology you want to use; if VRF are in use you can just use VLANs which is described in your first scenario : "use 2 routers with VRF lite configuration in each DC, then dot1q on the trunk through the Fabric Path"

  • Mobile waas

    had any one try mobile waas i have aquetion if users use proxy to access internet i think the behaviour of the connection that the client will connect to mobilewaas server then any connection to internet will go frist to server then go to proxy , is that right

    That is correct. Clients using mobile WAAS will be accelerated from the client to the server and then to the proxy.

  • Best placement of WAAS mobile

    Hi,
    What is the best practice?  Should WAAS mobile server be installed as close to Internet router as possible? or should WAAS mobile server be installed as close to server farms where the applications are?
    Let's say the internet router and server farms are NOT co-located at the same building.
    Thanks!
    Joe

    The WAAS client will intercept all traffic to the networks you specify. See:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/app_ntwk_services/waas/waas_mobile/v3.5/configuration/administration/guide/CiscoWAASMobileAdminGuide_3_5.pdf
    page 41, "Configuring Client Networking".
    You could add only the ftp servers in Bldg2 in your example. If you had another farm in Bldg1 your could direct traffic towards those servers to another WAAS-Mobile serverfarm.
    All traffic send via the WAAS-Mobile server will exit the server (in the default setting) with the IP of the server and using the routing table of the server, so yes you would have to arrange for traffic between the server and the internet.
    Alternatively you can define an ip range (as big as the ip range of the clients) to use for outgoing traffic or you can use the original IP of the client (this requires some magic in your network). See page 27.
