Excluding noncacheable sites

Some Web sites provide browser-based games or applications that keep real-time session information, or authenticate by client IP address-- content which is not well-suited for redirection to cache servers.

To exclude noncacheable sites from redirection filters:

  1. Create a filter to allow specific traffic to pass normally through the WSM. See Creating a new filter. Set the parameters in the following table.

    Filter field Setting
    Index
    		<Filter index number>
    (Must be a lower filter number than the application redirection filter)
    Name
    		Exclude <site name>
    Filter
    		Enabled
    Action
    		Allow
    Source IP Address
    		Any
    Destination IP Address
    		<IP address of Web site to redirect>
    Destination Mask
    		255.255.255.0
    (entire subnet range)
    Protocol
    		TCP
    Source Port
    		Any
    Destination Port
    		HTTP
    Redirection Port
    		<The redirection port number>

  2. Add the filter to the necessary ports. See Enabling or disabling filtering on a port and Applying filters to a port.
