350-701 · Question #544
In which two customer environments is the Cisco WSAv connector traffic direction method selected? (Choose two.)
The correct answer is A. Customer owns ASA Appliance and Virtual Form Factor is required. E. Customer does not own Cisco hardware and needs Transparent Redirection (WCCP). The Cisco WSA (Web Security Appliance) connector traffic direction methods cater to scenarios where customers leverage existing Cisco ASA appliances for traffic redirection or require transparent redirection without owning Cisco hardware.

Why each option
The Cisco WSA (Web Security Appliance) connector traffic direction methods cater to scenarios where customers leverage existing Cisco ASA appliances for traffic redirection or require transparent redirection without owning Cisco hardware.
If a customer owns an ASA appliance, it can be configured to redirect web traffic to a virtual form factor WSA using WCCP, making this a valid scenario for WSA connector traffic direction.
Explicit Proxy is a deployment mode where clients are explicitly configured to send traffic to the proxy, not a traffic direction method specifically tied to "not owning Cisco hardware" for transparent redirection.
While an ASA can be used with a WSA, "SSL Tunneling is required" doesn't specifically describe a traffic *direction* method for the WSA connector in the context of the given choices.
Supporting roaming users typically involves different solutions like VPNs or cloud-based proxies, not a direct WSA connector traffic direction method for *in-network* redirection.
When a customer does not own Cisco hardware but requires transparent redirection for web traffic, WCCP (Web Cache Communication Protocol) is a common method used to transparently redirect traffic to a WSA.
