Hi,

   Sorry, I don't understand what is the different you mean by Client side
web caching and Server side web caching.

   I think WCCP is always: Client --> Cache Engineer ---> Web Servers.

   "In" means inbound traffic will be checked for redirection, and "Out"
means outbound traffic will be checked for redirection.

   Am I misunderstand?

Best Regards,
William Chen
