Number of NIC on the squid box does not matter. WCCP will not stop
being a tunnel.
in squidbox we could use a private ip subnet since its tproxy then it
would have no problem if clients are using public ips?
IPs on the squidbox are not relevant. They are not used in TPROXY.
then a router would need a 3 ethernet port?
It is far easier to manage with 3 NIC, but two is also possible.
TPROXY works nicely when squid is running:
* directly on a gateway bridge
* directly on a gateway router
* on a dedicated NIC hanging off a gateway router
With a little MAC address difficulty and doubling the bandwidth hit on
one of the router NIC you can also run it on either side of a 2-NIC
router (but must be directly connected to a switch the router has on
that NIC).
