That I can accept. But, I still have one fundamental argument, which is to ensure true and absolute reliability, a machine should not be verifying its own health. My other concern is that now that it is licensable, will the other cache manufacturers do it properly also?
I haven't yet encountered a situation where the cache was having a problem and yet was still responding and talking WCCP to the router. When our Cache Engines have experienced problems, they have removed themselves from the available pool or stopped responding to WCCP (which, in turn, caused them to be removed). In short, I believe there's a very strong mechanism to check all functions of the cache before saying "hey, I'm okay here". /cah
