Two things:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/lan/catalyst3750/software/release/12.2_37_se/configuration/guide/swwccp.html
at least mentions the redirect ACL but apparently has it backwards:

"To disable caching for specific clients, servers, or client/server pairs, you 
can use a WCCP
 redirect access control list (ACL). Packets that match the redirect ACL bypass 
the cache and
 are forwarded normally."

The redirect ACL is "match == redirect", rather than "match == bypass."

Secondly, I can't see any mention of what is/isn't permitted in the redirect 
ACL.
Only in this article: http://wireless.itworld.com/networking/55658/wccp-refresh
where the author mentions that only permit entries are supported.

Sure enough, removing the explicit deny entries from the ACLs removes the CPU
punting and I'm happily fully transparently intercepting a gigabit of HTTP.

My question is - where in the Cisco documentation is this configuration caveat 
mentioned?

thanks,


Adrian
