HTTP Accelerator Troubleshooting
The HTTP accelerator optimizes HTTP and HTTPS (in version 4.3.1 and later) traffic using the following techniques:
- TCP connection reuse across the WAN. Avoids a connection setup penalty for subsequent HTTP connections requested by the same client. (Does not apply to HTTPS traffic.)
- HTTP metadata caching. Certain HTTP responses are cached, along with their URLs and metadata information, so that the edge WAE can respond locally to subsequent requests for the same URL. (Available only in version 4.2.1 and later.) The three types of cached responses are as follows:
- 301 Permanently-Redirected
- 304 Not-Modified
- 401 Authorization-Required
- HTTPS metadata caching. Certain HTTPS responses are cached, along with their URLs and metadata information, so that the edge WAE can respond locally to subsequent requests for the same URL. (Available only in version 4.3.1 and later.)
- HTTP suppress server encoding. Removes the Accept-Encoding header from the HTTP and HTTPS requests, preventing the server from sending compressed data towards the WAN. This allows the WAE to apply its own compression, typically resulting in a better compression ratio. (Available only in version 4.2.1 and later.)
- DRE hints. Provides specific hints to the DRE module to better compress the HTTP and HTTPS traffic based on the additional knowledge on the HTTP protocol provided by parsing the layer 7 payload:
- Skip header: Instructs the DRE module to not compress HTTP/HTTPS headers resulting in a better compression of the object.
- Flush: Instructs the DRE module to start compressing as soon as an HTTP/HTTPS transaction is fully processed.
- Skip LZ: Instructs the DRE module to not apply LZ compression to all objects already compressed by the original server, thus reducing the CPU overhead.
The HTTP metadata caching, suppress server encoding, and DRE hinting features can be configured separately. The TCP connection reuse feature is always active when the HTTP AO is enabled and applies only to HTTP traffic.
You can verify the general AO configuration and status with the show accelerator and show license commands, as described in the Troubleshooting Application Acceleration article. The Enterprise license is required for HTTP accelerator operation.
Next, verify the status that is specific to the HTTP AO by using the show accelerator http command, as shown in Figure 1. You want to see that the HTTP AO is Enabled, Running, and Registered, and that the connection limit is displayed. If the Config State is Enabled but the Operational State is Shutdown, it indicates a licensing problem. For each of the HTTP features the current mode is shown (User/Default) along with the value (Enabled, Disabled or configured value). The Suppress Server Encoding and Metadatacache items were added in version 4.2.1, and the DRE Hints and HTTPS Metadatacache items were added in version 4.3.1.
For HTTPS traffic to be optimized by both the SSL and HTTP AOs, ensure that one of these optional features is enabled: HTTPS metadata caching, suppress-server-encoding or DRE hints.
- Figure 1. Verifying the HTTP Accelerator Status
Use the show running-config command to verify that the HTTP/HTTPS traffic policy is properly configured and which of the features is enabled. You want to see accelerate http for the Web application action and you want to see appropriate match conditions listed for the HTTP classifier, as follows:
WAE674# sh run | include HTTP accelerator http suppress-server-encoding enable <----- in 4.2.1 and later accelerator http metadatacache https enable <----- in 4.3.1 and later accelerator http dre-hints enable <----- in 4.3.1 and later at least one of these must be enabled classifier HTTP classifier HTTPS name Web classifier HTTP action optimize full accelerate http <----- HTTP acceleration name Web classifier HTTPS action optimize DRE no compression none <----- HTTPS static policy applies to traffic not matching any SSL accelerated-services policy WAE674# sh run | begin HTTP ...skipping classifier HTTP match dst port eq 80 match dst port eq 8080 match dst port eq 8000 match dst port eq 8001 match dst port eq 3128 WAE674# sh run | begin HTTPS ...skipping classifier HTTPS match dst port eq 443 <----- add here any nondefault HTTPS port
Viewing HTTP Statistics
Use the show statistics accelerator http command to see the following statistics:
- How much time is being saved by the HTTP AO. You can see the overall Time Saved by the entire HTTP AO or the Time Saved by each of the features:
- Time Saved by fast connection reuse
- Time Saved by the three metadata caches
- Number of cache hits/misses for the metadata caches
- Number of times suppress server encoding is applied to HTTP requests
- Number of times DRE hints are provided based on the content of the HTTP headers
- Number of HTTP transactions (request+response) processed
- Number of errors in the HTTP header processing
- Number of cache revalidations
WAE674# sh stat accel http HTTP: Global Statistics ----------------- Time Accelerator was started: Tue Apr 6 06:04:06 2010 Time Statistics were Last Reset/Cleared: Tue Apr 6 06:04:06 2010 Total Handled Connections: 3743984 Total Optimized Connections: 3743984 Total Connections Handed-off with Compression Policies Unchanged: 0 Total Dropped Connections: 0 Current Active Connections: 48 Current Pending Connections: 0 Maximum Active Connections: 176 Total Time Saved (ms): 35584437 <-----Should be incrementing Current Active Connections Free For Fast Connection Use: 2 Total Connections Handed-off: 0 Total Connections Handed-off with Compression Policies Disabled: 0 Total Connections Handed-off to SSL: 0 Total Connection Hand-off Failures: 0 Total Fast Connection Successes: 3617244 <-----Should be incrementing Total Fast Connection Failures: 0 Maximum Fast Connections on a Single Connection: 100 Total CONNECT Requests with Incomplete Message: 0 Percentage of Connection Time Saved: 37 Total Round Trip Time For All Connections (ms): 4922767377 Total Fast Connections Initiated by Peer: 0 Total SYN Timeouts: 0 Total Time for Metadata Cache Miss (ms): 2 <-----Output from here is in 4.2.1 and later only RTT saved by Redirect Metadata Cache (ms): 5988 <-----Should be incrementing RTT saved by Authorization Redirect Metadata Cache (ms): 345 <-----Should be incrementing RTT saved by Content Refresh Check Metadata Cache (ms): 44987 <-----Should be incrementing Total Time Saved by Fast Connection Use (ms): 456 Total Locally Served Redirect Responses: 453 <-----Should be incrementing Total Locally Served Unauthorized Responses: 56 <-----Should be incrementing Total Locally Served Conditional Responses: 4932 <-----Should be incrementing Total Remotely Served Redirect Responses: 0 Total Remotely Served Unauthorized Responses: 0 Total Remotely Served Conditional Responses: 1 Total Requests with URL Longer than 255 Characters: 0 Total Requests with HTTP Pipelining: 0 Total Transactions Handled: 2 <-----Total number of HTTP transactions processed Total Server Compression Suppression: 1 <-----Total number of Accept-Encoding removed Total Requests Requiring Server Content-Revalidation: 0 Total Responses not to be Cached: 0 Total Connections Expecting Authentication: 0 Total Connections with Unsupported HTTP Requests: 0 Total Connections with Unsupported HTTP Responses: 0 Total Hints Sent to DRE Layer to Flush Data: 2 Total Hints Sent to DRE Layer to Skip LZ: 0 Total Hints Sent to DRE Layer to Skip Header Information: 1
If the Total Time Saved counter in the output above is not incrementing or is quite small, it indicates that the HTTP AO is not providing much benefit. If the Total Time Saved by one of the three metadata caches is not incrementing or is quite small, it indicates that the corresponding metadata cache is not providing much benefit.
The Total Server Compression Suppression counter indicates how many times the Accept-Encoding header has been removed, in an attempt to provide a better compression by the WAE device. The Total Hints Sent to DRE Layer counters indicate how many times each of the DRE hints (Flush Data, Skip LZ, Skip Header) has been issued to the DRE module, in an attempt to better compress the data.
To view similar information from the Central Manager in version 4.2.1 and later, choose the WAE device, then choose Monitor > Acceleration > HTTP Acceleration Report and choose the Details tab to see the following charts:
- HTTP Response Time Savings (fast connection reuse, redirect, conditional, and unauthorized cached)
- HTTP Optimization Count (number of times each of the above optimizations has been applied)
- HTTP Optimization Techniques (for all HTTP optimizations, including metadata caches, connection reuse, DRE hints and suppress-server-encoding)
To see debugging information on the HTTP header parsing and error conditions, use the show statistics accelerator http debug command (in 4.3.1 and later) to determine the following:
- Number of 301, 304 and 401 responses cached
- Number of HTTP headers, version and methods
- Reasons for HTTP responses not being cached
- Total number of HTTP responses being cached
- Reasons for HTTP requests not being served from the local cache
Use the show statistics connection optimized http command to check that the WAAS device is establishing optimized HTTP connections. Verify that an "H" appears in the Accel column for HTTP connections, which indicates that the HTTP AO was used, as follows:
WAE674# sh stat conn opt http Current Active Optimized Flows: 2 Current Active Optimized TCP Plus Flows: 2 Current Active Optimized TCP Only Flows: 0 Current Active Optimized TCP Preposition Flows: 0 Current Active Auto-Discovery Flows: 0 Current Active Pass-Through Flows: 0 Historical Flows: 100 D:DRE,L:LZ,T:TCP Optimization, A:AOIM,C:CIFS,E:EPM,G:GENERIC,H:HTTP,M:MAPI,N:NFS,S:SSL,V:VIDEO ConnID Source IP:Port Dest IP:Port PeerID Accel 5929 10.10.10.10:3446 10.10.100.100:80 00:14:5e:84:24:5f THDL <-------Look for "H"
You can check connection statistics for closed connections by using the show statistics connection closed http command.
To view similar information from the Central Manager, choose the WAE device, then choose Monitor > Optimization > Connections Statistics.
- Figure 2. Connection Statistics Report with HTTP
In the Connection Statistics report, the globe icon in the Applied Policy column shows that the HTTP AO was used for a connection. (Place your cursor over an icon to see its meaning.)
You can view the HTTP connection statistics by using the show statistics connection optimized http detail command. Look for the "Fast connections" counter in the output. A positive value for this counter means that the HTTP AO benefits clients by reusing persistent connections, which reduces latency.

Viewing HTTPS Statistics
(This section applies only to version 4.3.1 and later.)
Use the show statistics accelerator http https command to see the following statistics:
- How much time is being saved by the HTTP AO for HTTPS traffic. You can see the overall Time Saved by the entire HTTPS metadata cache or the Time Saved by each of the three metadata caches
- Number of cache hits/misses for the metadata caches
- Number of times suppress server encoding is applied to HTTPS requests
- Number of times DRE hints are provided based on the content of the HTTPS headers
- Number of HTTPS transactions (request+response) processed
- Number of errors in the HTTPS header processing
- Number of cache revalidations

If the Total Time Saved counter in the output above is not incrementing or is quite small, it indicates that the HTTP AO is not providing much benefit to the HTTPS traffic. If the Total Time Saved by one of the three metadata caches is not incrementing or is quite small, it indicates that the corresponding metadata cache is not providing much benefit.
The Total Server Compression Suppression counter indicates how many times the Accept-Encoding header has been removed from HTTPS requests, in an attempt to provide a better compression by the WAE device. The Total Hints Sent to DRE Layer counters indicate how many times each of the DRE hints (Flush Data, Skip LZ, Skip Header) has been issued to the DRE module, in an attempt to better compress the data.
To view similar information from the Central Manager in version 4.3.1 and later, choose the WAE device, then choose Monitor > Acceleration > HTTPS Acceleration Report and choose the Details tab to see the following charts:
- HTTPS Response Time Savings (redirect, conditional, and unauthorized cached)
- HTTPS Optimization Count (number of times each of the above optimizations has been applied)
- HTTPS Optimization Techniques (for all HTTPS optimizations, including metadata caches, DRE hints and suppress-server-encoding)
To see debugging information on the HTTPS header parsing and error conditions, use the show statistics accelerator http debug command to determine the following:
- Number of 301, 304 and 401 responses cached
- Number of HTTP headers, version and methods
- Reasons for HTTP responses not being cached
- Total number of HTTP responses being cached
- Reasons for HTTP requests not being served from the local cache
Use the show statistics connection optimized http command to check that the WAAS device is establishing optimized HTTPS connections. Verify that both an "H" and an "S" appear in the Accel column for HTTPS connections, which indicates that both the HTTP and SSL AOs were used, as follows:
WAE674# sh stat conn opt http Current Active Optimized Flows: 2 Current Active Optimized TCP Plus Flows: 2 Current Active Optimized TCP Only Flows: 0 Current Active Optimized TCP Preposition Flows: 0 Current Active Auto-Discovery Flows: 0 Current Active Pass-Through Flows: 0 Historical Flows: 100 D:DRE,L:LZ,T:TCP Optimization, A:AOIM,C:CIFS,E:EPM,G:GENERIC,H:HTTP,M:MAPI,N:NFS,S:SSL,V:VIDEO ConnID Source IP:Port Dest IP:Port PeerID Accel 5929 10.10.10.10:3446 10.10.100.100:80 00:14:5e:84:24:5f THSDL <-------Look for "H" and "S"
You can check connection statistics for closed connections by using the show statistics connection closed http or show statistics connection closed ssl commands.
To view similar information from the Central Manager, choose the WAE device, then choose Monitor > Optimization > Connections Statistics.
- Figure 3. Connection Statistics Report with HTTP and SSL
In the Connection Statistics report, the globe icon in the Applied Policy column shows that the HTTP AO was used for a connection and the lock icon indicates that the SSL AO was applied. (Place your cursor over an icon to see its meaning.)
You can view the HTTPS connection statistics by using the show statistics connection optimized http detail and show statistics connection optimized ssl detail commands.

Viewing the HTTP Metadata Cache
To display the content of the three HTTP metadata caches (redirect, conditional, and unauthorized), use the show cache http-metadatacache all command. Only the full URL and the expiration (in seconds) are displayed. You can also display the content of each of the three caches separately by using the following commands:
- show cache http-metadatacache redirect-response
- show cache http-metadatacache conditional-response
- show cache http-metadatacache unauthorized-response
The typical output of the above commands is as follows:
Redirect Cache Active entries: 1, Max Entries: 1500 URL: www.abcnews.com/, Expiration (sec): 3206 Conditional Cache Active entries: 6, Max Entries: 10500 URL: www.cisco.com/web/fw/i/quicklinks-rnd-corners.gif, Expiration (sec): 3594 URL: www.cisco.com/web/fw/i/hp-sprites.gif, Expiration (sec): 3594 URL: www.cisco.com/en/US/home/images/ba-actsGreen-logo.jpg, Expiration (sec): 3594 URL: www.cisco.com/en/US/home/images/fp-eos3.jpg, Expiration (sec): 3594 URL: www.cisco.com/en/US/home/images/fp-AP541n.jpg, Expiration (sec): 3594 URL: www.cisco.com/web/fw/c/home.min.css, Expiration (sec): 3592 Unauthorized Cache Active entries: 1, Max Entries: 3000 URL: l.yimg.com/index.html, Expiration (sec): 86393
You can clear the content of the three caches with the clear cache http-metadatacache all command.
If you want to clear the content of each cache separately, you can use the following commands:
- clear cache http-metadatacache redirect-response
- clear cache http-metadatacache conditional-response
- clear cache http-metadatacache unauthorized-response
If you want to specify a URL to be deleted you can use the following command:
clear cache http-metadatacache {all|redirect|conditional|unauthorized} URL
Viewing the HTTPS Metadata Cache
To display the number of entries in the three HTTPS metadata caches (redirect, conditional, and unauthorized), use the show cache http-metadatacache https command. Unlike the corresponding command for the HTTP metadata cache, the URL and the expiration time are not displayed. You can also display the number of entries for each of the three caches separately by using the following commands:
- show cache http-metadatacache https redirect-response
- show cache http-metadatacache https conditional-response
- show cache http-metadatacache https unauthorized-response
The typical output of the above commands is as follows:
HTTPS Redirect Cache Active HTTP entries: 0, Active HTTPS entries: 0 Max Entries: 3250 HTTPS Conditional Cache Active HTTP entries: 0, Active HTTPS entries: 11 Max Entries: 22750 HTTPS Unauthorized Cache Active HTTP entries: 0, Active HTTPS entries: 0 Max Entries: 6500
You can clear the content of the three caches with the clear cache http-metadatacache https command.
If you want to clear the content of each cache separately, you can use the following commands:
- clear cache http-metadatacache https redirect-response
- clear cache http-metadatacache https conditional-response
- clear cache http-metadatacache https unauthorized-response
Metadata Cache Cache-Control Behavior
For HTTP and HTTPS (in version 4.3.1) 304 responses, the metadata cache honors all Cache-Control directives (Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store, private, must-revalidate, proxy-revalidate, max-age=0, Pragma: no-cache). There is an option to disable such Cache-Control checks, which means that all 304 responses with Cache-Control headers specifying no-cacheability are cached and all requests with Cache-Control headers specifying no-cacheability can be served from the local cache.
Understand that disabling the cache control checks might increase the benefits of the metadata-cache, because some browsers or web servers might have a default option to include one cache control header in all responses in order to force revalidation of the object through the original server. This would make the metadata cache ineffective for 304 responses.
The option can be independently controlled for HTTP/S requests (cache lookups) and responses (cache insertions).
To disable cache control checks on HTTP/S 304 requests, use the following command:
WAE#accelerator http metadatacache request-ignore-no-cache enable
This command forces the metadatacache to disregard all Cache-Control directives in HTTP/S 304 requests. (The default [no] form of this command forces the metadatacache to honor all Cache-Control directives in HTTP/S 304 requests.)
To disable cache control checks on HTTP/S 304 responses, use the following command:
WAE#accelerator http metadatacache response-ignore-no-cache enable
This command forces the metadatacache to disregard all Cache-Control directives in HTTP/S 304 responses. (The default [no] form of this command forces the metadatacache to honor all Cache-Control directives in HTTP/S 304 responses.)
The metadata cache honors Cache-Control headers for 301 and 401 responses. If the response has any of the Cache-Control headers (no-cache, no-store, private, must-revalidate, proxy-revalidate, max-age=0, Pragma: no-cache), it is not cached.
Metadata Caching Exceptions
There are certain exceptions to what is cached. The cache insertion or lookup does not occur when the HTTP AO encounters one of the following conditions on the HTTP/S request/response being processed:
- Non-RFC complaint requests and responses: malformed/invalid headers, repeated headers, missing headers, unexpected body, unexpected chunked encoding
- URL size is more than 255 characters
- HTTP pipelined transactions
- WebDav methods
- HEAD method
- 301/401 responses with cookie headers
- 301 responses with a total header length of more than 768 bytes
- 401 responses with a total header length of more than 384 bytes
- 401 responses with a chunked body
- 401 responses with unsupported authentication method (supported methods include: Basic, NTLM, Negotiate, Kerberos, Digest, Oauth)
- Partial HTTP header (header split) available for processing
HTTP AO Logging
The following log files are available for troubleshooting HTTP AO issues:
- Transaction log files: /local1/logs/tfo/working.log (and /local1/logs/tfo/tfo_log_*.txt)
- Debug log files: /local1/errorlog/httpao-errorlog.current (and httpao-errorlog.*)
For easier debugging, you should first set up an ACL to restrict packets to one host.
WAE674(config)# ip access-list extended 150 permit tcp host 10.10.10.10 any WAE674(config)# ip access-list extended 150 permit tcp any host 10.10.10.10
To enable transaction logging, use the transaction-logs configuration command as follows:
wae(config)# transaction-logs flow enable wae(config)# transaction-logs flow access-list 150
You can view the end of a transaction log file by using the type-tail command as follows:
wae# type-tail tfo_log_10.10.11.230_20090715_130000.txt Wed Jul 15 13:37:00 2009 :1529 :10.10.10.10 :2004 :10.10.100.100 :80 :OT :END :EXTERNAL CLIENT :(HTTP) :0 :0 :107 :117 Wed Jul 15 13:37:00 2009 :1529 :10.10.10.10 :1880 :10.10.100.100 :80 :SODRE :END :14357 :8406 :2181 :2761 :0 Wed Jul 15 13:38:19 2009 :1533 :10.10.10.10 :2008 :10.10.100.101 :135 :OT :START :EXTERNAL CLIENT :00.14.5e.84.24.5f :basic :Other :MS-EndPointMapper :F :(TFO) (TFO) (TFO) (TFO) (TFO) :<None> :(EPM) (EPM) (EPM) :<None> :<None> :0 :120 Wed Jul 15 13:38:19 2009 :1534 :10.10.10.10 :2009 :10.10.100.101 :1025 :OT :START :EXTERNAL CLIENT :00.14.5e.84.24.5f :uuide3514235-4b06-11d1-ab04-00c04fc2dcd2
To set up and enable debug logging of the HTTP AO, use the following commands.
NOTE: Debug logging is CPU intensive and can generate a large amount of output. Use it judiciously and sparingly in a production environment.
You can enable detailed logging to the disk:
WAE674(config)# logging disk enable WAE674(config)# logging disk priority detail
You can enable debug logging for connections in the ACL:
WAE674# debug connection access-list 150
The options for HTTP AO debugging (on 4.2.1 and later) are as follows:
WAE674# debug accelerator http ? all enable all HTTP accelerator debugs bypass-list enable HTTP bypass-list debugs cli enable HTTP CLI debugs conditional-response enable HTTP metadatacache conditional (304) response debugs connection enable HTTP connection debugs dre-hints enable HTTP dre-hints debugs metadatacache enable HTTP metadatacache debugs prefetch enable HTTP prefetch debugs redirect-response enable HTTP metadatacache redirect (301) response debugs shell enable HTTP shell debugs suppress-server-encoding enable HTTP suppress-server-encoding debugs transaction enable HTTP transaction debugs unauthorized-response enable HTTP auth-optimization debugs bugs
You can enable debug logging for HTTP connections and then display the end of the debug error log as follows:
WAE674# debug accelerator http connection WAE674# type-tail errorlog/httpao-errorlog.current follow
