Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer readable storage mediums are disclosed for the management of rejected traffic in a WCCP protocol. A request is received from a switch to redirect traffic from a client device to a cache engine. The cache engine determines that it cannot process traffic from the client device, and in response to the determination, sends a command to the switch to suspend traffic to the cache engine. The command includes instructions for one or more of removing a particular rule regarding routing of the traffic to the cache engine or modifying an access control list rule to exclude the cache engine.
