!!!Web Cache Control Protocol
The Web Cache Communication Protocol (WCCP), developed by Cisco Systems, specifies interactions between one or more routers (or Layer 3 switches) and one or more web-caches. The purpose of the interaction is to establish and maintain the transparent redirection of selected types of traffic flowing through a group of routers. The selected traffic is redirected to a group of web-caches with the aim of optimizing resource usage and lowering response times.%%%

In English, WCCP is a way for a cisco router to check that a web proxy is up and where it is so that it can transparently redirect web traffic at it. This is the idea behind transparent proxying that your [ISP] uses to confuse your browser ;)
