WAVE-274-K9 and WAE-512-K9 as CM ?
1) Can the WAVE-274-K9 device be configured as a WAAS Central Manager off-the-shelf ?
2) Same for WAE-512-K9 device ?
regards,
Geert
Geert,
For the CM functionality in WAAS 4.1.x, you need the enterprise license installed, then you can configure the CM role on the device.
274 can support around 125 WAEs
512-1GB can support 500 WAEs
512-2GB can support 1000 WAEs.
Hope that helps,
Dan

WAE 512 and transaction logs problem
Hi guys,
I have a WAE 512 with ACNS 5.5.1b7 and I'm not able to export archived logs correctly. I tried to configure the WAE as below:
transaction-logs enable
transaction-logs archive interval every-day at 23:00
transaction-logs export enable
transaction-logs export interval every-day at 23:30
transaction-logs export ftp-server 10.253.8.125 cache **** .
and the WAE exported only one file of about 9 MB even if the files was stored on the WAE as you can see from the output:
Transaction log configuration:
Logging is enabled.
End user identity is visible.
File markers are disabled.
Archive interval: every-day at 23:00 local time
Maximum size of archive file: 2000000 KB
Log File format is squid.

I made a test and I configured the archiveng every hour from 12:00 to 15:00 and the export at 15:10, the file trasnferred by the WAE was only three one of 12:00 the other of 13:00 and 14:00 the 15:00 has been missed.
What can I do?
Thx
davideHi Davide,
You seem to be missing the path on the FTP server; which goes on the export command.
Disable transaction logs, then remove the export command and then add it again like this: transaction-logs export ftp-server 10.253.8.125 cache **** / ; after that enable transaction logs again and test it.
Let me know how it goes. Thanks!

WAAS Upgrade CM path from 4.4.7 WAE-512 to 5.4 vCM
I have a deployed WAAS system running 4.4.7 and the old WAE hardware is all on the EOL clock or not supporting 5.4 at all. The budge fairies had money at the end of the year so I've got new WAVE boxes and vCM 5.4 DVDs to deploy.
My question is what is the upgrade process for the CMs?
Can I simply spin up two 5.4 vCMs as a secondary CMs to the 4.4.7 primary CM on a WAE-512, then make one the primary? That would assume that a 5.4 secondary could sync to and then take over directly from a 4.4.7 primary. That's the bit that I have doubts about.
Or would I have to start with vCMs at 4.4.7 to get them to sync, then take over as primary and upgrade them? Is there a 4.4.7 vCM image?
If that's a dead end, I saw another discussion about downgrading a WAVE-294. I'm thinking one could be downgraded to 4.4.7, joined as a secondary CM, promoted to primary, and then upgraded as a stepping stone to vCMs at 5.4. Then the '294 would be deployed back as accelerator as originally intended. Any pitfalls with this?
Or is there a simpler path that I'm missing entirely?
Also can anyone confirm that the RJ-45 console ports on the WAVE-*94 have the same pin-out as traditional Cisco switch RJ-45 console ports?
Thanks.Hi 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

WAAS - WAE-512-K9 - SATA2 250 GB Hard disk not detecting
We had installed new WAE-512-K9 having 2*SATA2 250GB Hard disk as edge box in one of the branch. But during configuration, we have notified that both the hard disks are not getting detected. Both the disks 00 & 01 are inserted in the respective slots as mentioned in the cisco document. Hard disk LEDs are glowing intially when the device boots up, but later there is no LED indication. Please help me in resolving this issue.
Hi Tammy,
The only thing you need is - disk delete-data-partitions once the unit reboots after the memory upgrade. This command re-aligns the CIFS and DRE partition to match with 8GB memory. This command should retain the software and config on the device, only repartition the caching partitions. Not sure what may have went wrong but it seems like at this moment you may want to re-install image using copy ftp install command on WAE. Other than that, your disks look helthy.

WAE-512-1G Optimized TCP Connections
Hi all,
Regarding the Sizing Capabilities of a WAE-512-1G Appliance, what is the meaning of the "Optimized TCP Connections" ?
Is this parameter related only from the initiated point ? or from both directions?
I'm asking this because, after instaling in inline configuration, a point-to-point circuit only, (2 WAE's + 1 CM), in the Branch WAE we had a Minor Alarm saying that we have reached the TFO Limitation, and on the ohter end, we haven't that alarm.
Most of the traffic(connections), should be from the Branch to the Central Site.
So, the main question is, if this parameter is related to from where the connection is initiated.
Best Regards,
Bruno PetrónioThe branch Cisco WAE applies a new TCP option (0x21) to the packet if the application is identified for optimization by an application classifier. The branch Cisco WAE adds its device ID and application policy support to the new TCP option field. This option is examined and understood by other Cisco WAEs in the path as the ID and policy fields of the initial Cisco WAE device. The initial ID and policy fields are not altered by another Cisco WAE. The packet is forwarded to the branch router and then to the WAN.

Dear ,
I have site A and Site B.In site A I have AWe 512 is installed,at site B there is a WAE 512 and WAAS as a CM installed.
All the applications were working fine between site A and site B.All of a sudden applications are not working like RDP,Accessin file server and all not accessible at site A to site B.When I check the connectivity ,it is reachable from site A to site B.
Even telnet from site A to site B to all servers with the port 3389 is connecting.When I check through netstat -an it shows from site A source address to site B destination address to that port 3389 is established.
When mstc to that server is hanging,and \\x.x.x.x\ to remote is not able to open.
Please guide me to resolve.
Regards,Hi Venkat,
Looking at your issue, are you sure this is WAAS issue? Can you please apply pass thru policy for this traffic and see if it works.
You can also use cli command: show stat conn | in to see if the connection is going thru WAAS and is being optimized. If it shows up as optimized, try putting a pass thru policy for this client and verify the functionality.
Further, is this issue limited to one client / one site / multiple sites? Depending on that you want to focus either on hub site or branch site or single client.
Please also provide us the software version and hardwares you are using at the affected sites.
Feel free to let us know if you think it is WAAS related.
Hope this helps,
Regards.

WAE-512 - latest software version?
Hi,
I am trying to find out about the latest WAAS software version supported on WAE-512. This product went EOS in May 2011. I am aware that V5 release notes declare that V5 is NOT supported on WAE-512. However, there is no clear statement anywhere on the support web site which WAAS software version is supported - I know that 4.3.x is, but what about V 4.4.x?
Does anybody run V4.4.x on WAE-512 (ideally used as Central manager) or is there any other confirmation that WAE 512 can be upgrade from V.4.3 to V4.4?
many thanks
Rainer FeilIf you have TAC support on your 512s, you can request version 4.5.1, they will make you fill out 20 or so pages documenting your network before they allow you to download it. 4.5.1 has the Citrix acceleration built in, and the better default policy set.
I had 512s running version 4.4.7 before 5.0.1 came out and they ran with no issues. I upgraded to 674s in 3 locations when 5.0.1 came out to get the Citrix acceleration piece. The 512s can not run 5.0.1.
If you plan on upgrading to 4.5.1, do not upgrade past 4.4.5, or you will have to downgrade before upgrading to 4.5.1
Highest level you can go to on 512 - 4.5.1:

How does QoS work with WAAS WCCP? What's the interaction between Router QoS Traffic Classification and WAE Traffic Application Policy?
By default, WAAS preserves the DSCP marking on intercepted packets. There is a configuration option to set/override the DSCP value at the global (device), application, and classifier levels. Currently WAAS provides marking only. There is no action taken by WAAS based on the DSCP value.

Waves plug ins and B$ available in Garageband????
Hi, Guys & gals. I am a newbie here. Unfortunately I am going thru a nasty divorce and am temporarily separated from my digidesign 003 mixer which makes it impossible to launch pro tools. In the meantime I am going to work in garageband to stay sane while I wait. Ihave several ????s but will post them individually. First I am curious to know if I will be able to access my Waves Platinum bundle and my B4 virtual organ in garageband? Any info, instructions or knowledge will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! Misery Meister.
If they are in the AU format they should be usable in GB. Unless someone else in the forum is using the instruments, the best way is to try them out: Create a software instrument track and try to pick the instruments in the "Generator" menu in the track info pane.
