Cisco WAE Configured with Cisco WAAS Software
Cisco WAAS software offers three license options, Cisco WAAS Transport License, Cisco WAAS
Enterprise License, and the Cisco WAAS Central Manager License, further described in the
Cisco
WAAS data sheet. All three Cisco WAAS license options are supported on the Cisco WAE-512,
WAE-612, WAE-674, WAE-7341, and WAE-7371 appliances.
Cisco WAE Configured with Cisco ACNS Software
Cisco ACNS Software can be configured on some models as a content engine, content router, or
content distribution manager (CDM). All products are ordered and shipped directly from the factory
as content engines. On the supported models (Table 2), content engines can be changed with a
command-line interface (CLI) command. The product can have only one function (content engine,
content router, or CDM) and cannot be configured to perform any two functions simultaneously.
Cisco ACNS is not supported on the WAE-7371.
