I'm not aware of WCCP, but I'll look into it.

In short, the Web Cache Communications Protocol, "... specifies interactions between one or more routers (or Layer 3 switches) and one or more web-caches ...".

WCCP can be pressed into service between an in-path device (usually L3) and a cache.  As such, I would hope ~> expect that the pseudo L3 firewall can do it's work while using WCCP to allow a backend proxy do the actual caching, et la.



FYI, WCCP is one way of routing client traffic to Squid where that Squid is doing interception.

The Squid wiki has a whole section on how to setup both router/switch and Squid ends of the WCCP. <https://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/#Interception>
