To answer your earlier question:
  the above two lines means WCCPv1 is disabled, WCCPv2 is being used.

Okay. I've polished up our exemplar configs a little:
 http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/Wccp2
(some way to go though).

There are four parts to WCCP systems:

 1) WCCP capture and redirect

 2) gre tunnel between the Cisco and Squid boxes

 3) squid box firewall settings and NAT capture of received gre packets
    
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Intercept#Traffic_Interception_capture_into_Squid

 4) squid.conf settings to make Squid contact the cisco router
