Usage Guidelines An InlineGroup interface is a logical grouping of a pair of Ethernet ports that are physically contained
in the optional 4-port Cisco WAE Inline Network Adapter. The inline network adapter is supported on
all WAAS appliance platforms beginning with the WAAS 4.0.7 release. Two Cisco WAE Inline Network
Adapters are supported in the WAE-7341/7371/674 beginning with the WAAS 4.2.1 release.
You can have up to two (or four) InlineGroup interfaces, which allows for two (or four) bypass-enabled
paths for traffic to pass through the WAE appliance, making multiple-router deployments possible. The
InlineGroup interfaces provide failover capability and can be assigned to any set of VLANs. (For
examples of InlineGroup interface configurations, see the (config-if) inline command.)
You can configure the InlineGroup interface for link speed (bandwidth or autosense) and mode of
operation (half-duplex or full-duplex).
Note If the VLAN ID that you set with the encapsulation dot1q option does not match the VLAN ID expected
by the router subinterface, you may not be able to connect to the inline interface IP address.
The inline adapter supports only a single VLAN ID for each inline group interface. If you have
configured a secondary address from a different subnet on an inline interface, you must have the same
secondary address assigned on the router subinterface for the VLAN.
Note We strongly recommend that you do not use half duplex on the WAE, routers, switches, or other devices.
Use of half-duplex impedes system ability to improve performance and should not be used.
Double-check each Cisco WAE interface as well as the port configuration on the adjacent device (router,
switch, firewall, WAE) to verify that full-duplex is configured.
access-group Configures access control for IP packets on this interface using access
control list (ACL).
acl_num Numeric identifier that identifies the ACL to apply to the current interface.
For standard ACLs, the valid range is 1–99; for extended ACLs, the valid
range is 100–199.
acl_name Alphanumeric identifier of up to 30 characters, beginning with a letter that
identifies the ACL to apply to the current interface.
in Applies the specified ACL to inbound packets on the current interface.
out Applies the specified ACL to outbound packets on the current interface.
shutdown (Optional) Shuts down this interface.
