Hi all squid users,

i am running sorry i was running squid +wccp v 2 for one moth and suddenly
there was a problem and my squid stoped responding, it was figured out that
the squid was working fine ( by using it as a proxy i check it) and only
problem was with the wccp module or wccp problem on the cisco router.Has
anybody faced the same situation, kindly tellme.

Presently i am running squid and redirecting the traffic from router with
the help of PBR (Policy Based routing).it is working fine but has his own
drawbacks.

So it is a kind request to all the developers who are researching on squid
to take care of this part of the squid to ( means connectivity with the
router), or we can just stop using wccp.
