Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR) — Question 492

An administrator configures a Cisco WSA to receive redirected traffic over ports 80 and 443. The organization requires that a network device with specific WSA integration capabilities be configured to send the traffic to the WSA to proxy the requests and increase visibility, while making this invisible to the users. What must be done on the Cisco WSA to support these requirements?

Answer options

• A. Use PAC keys to allow only the required network devices to send the traffic to the Cisco WSA.
• B. Configure transparent traffic redirection using WCCP in the Cisco WSA and on the network device.
• C. Configure active traffic redirection using WPAD in the Cisco WSA and on the network device.
• D. Use the Layer 4 setting in the Cisco WSA to receive explicit forward requests from the network device.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because configuring WCCP allows for transparent traffic redirection, enabling the network device to send traffic to the Cisco WSA without user intervention. Options A, C, and D do not meet the requirement for transparent visibility and integration, as they either limit traffic to specific devices or do not support the necessary redirection methods.
