[jira] [Created] (TS-991) WCCP can stall during a restart.

WCCP can stall during a restart.
--------------------------------

                 Key: TS-991
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-991
             Project: Traffic Server
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Management
    Affects Versions: 3.1.0
            Reporter: Alan M. Carroll
            Assignee: Alan M. Carroll
             Fix For: 3.1.2


If the WCCP router uses an identifying IP address which is not the same as the source IP address on the packet (which is allowed by the WCCP spec) then the TS client side WCCP code can fail to properly generate an assignment. This happens during a window after a restart when TS is trying to set up the WCCP view while the router has not yet realized TS has restarted. The client WCCP logic then soft stalls and doesn't generate a new assignement when the router responses are processed.

[jira] [Resolved] (TS-991) WCCP can stall during a restart.

Alan M. Carroll resolved TS-991.
--------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s:     (was: 3.1.2)
                   3.1.1

Changed view update logic to generate an assignment if the last reported time of a cache in the view is not the time of the last packet (so the cache has left and returned to the view in the router's opinion but not in the client's opinion).
